Seabirds have been a part of human exploration of the ocean from the start; icons of the comedy, grace, and challenge of a life at sea. They have been sailors’ teachers of geography and guides home. But while seabirds are long-revered by maritime communities, they are nearly invisible to the majority of people who live inland.
Starting in 2024, a group of six fellows set out to explore the connections between people and seabirds and bring more attention to these often forgotten birds. ABC’s Seabirds and Stories of Multi-Species Kinship Fellowship brought together storytellers across formats and regions, all of whom have deep connections to the ocean and seabirds. Watch this webinar to celebrate the deep connections between seabirds and people, discover the inspiring stories of our fellows, and hear insights about their projects and experiences.
