The Messenger
For
thousands of years songbirds have been embarking on an incredible migratory
journey across continents and oceans. But today they are threatened by climate
change, pesticides, predators and city lights. Songbirds are disappearing at an
alarming rate, and their decline is a message to us all.
The Messenger delivers a visually thrilling ode to the beauty and
importance of these imperilled creatures, and what it will mean to all of us if
we lose them.
