Summary

This quote suggests that birds are able to serve as indicators of the state of the environment. If the well-being of birds is compromised or threatened, it implies that the overall health of the environment may also be at risk. Since birds are highly sensitive to environmental changes and disruptions, their decline could signify the degradation or imbalance of ecosystems, indicating that humans could also face implications or challenges in the near future. Thus, this quote emphasizes the interconnectedness between the well-being of birds, the environment, and human societies.
