- Fakta menarik
- Brewer's Blackbird was uplisted from Least Concern to Near Threatened after trend data showed steep, poorly understood population declines (roughly 12-24% over the past decade, and by some counts over half since the 1960s) despite the species thriving in human-altered habitats like parking lots and farmland.
