Dessi Sieburth's love of birds started about six years ago.Now, he has his own group called Protecting Our Birds.Recently，Dessi, 11 years old, chatted with TFK about his work and goals for the future.

TFK：What is Protecting Our Birds?

DESSI：Birds are citizens of the world, so they need protection.I basically try to do conservation(保护) work to help birds get protected throughout the world.I recently wrote an article about a bird called the bar-tailed godwit(斑尾鹬)．I interviewed a biologist(生物学家) named Nils Warnock, who had studied the bar-tailed godwit.He expressed the concern about the threat that the bar-tailed godwit is facing.I wrote an article about his answers to the questions, which is published on the American Birding Association Website.

TFK：What impelled you to start this project?

DESSI：When I was eight years old, our class had to do a wood-working project, so I chose a bird feeder(喂食盒)．I didn't like birds at the time.I made the feeder, filled it up with seed, put it in my backyard and then the birds started coming.I got really interested in birds as more came.I later got involved in my local Audubon Society, which is an association devoted to preserving natural ecosystems.It really got me into birds and I realized bird populations were decreasing, and many are becoming endangered quite rapidly.I wanted to help them, so I started the project.

TFK：What are some future projects you plan to work on?

DESSI：I live in L．A.where there are a lot of parrots.Most of the parrots' native range is in Mexico, but they're really declining there because of habitat loss.I want to study the parrots and help them in their native range in Mexico, so they can start increasing again.

TFK：How can people learn more about Protecting Our Birds and the work you're doing?

DESSI：I have a website.It's protectingourbirds.my-free.website.There people can learn about what I do and how to help birds.
