. American Bird Conservancy has launched Bird News Network (BNN) a syndicated news service for stories about birds and bird conservation throughout the Americas and is inviting organizations to participate by submitting press releases and story ideas and by subscribing to the news service. BNN will enable media professionals, birders, and conservation organizations interested in birds and bird conservation to subscribe to an RSS news feed that will provide regular press releases and summaries of national press coverage on bird conservation issues. These releases will include regular video news webcasts as well as stories from American Bird Conservancy and its partners in bird conservation. Bird Conservation Alliance members and other interested organizations, and news outlets can syndicate the RSS feed on their websites and blogs.
