Caption

Over a 44-year study, University of Illinois researchers observed significant declines in common tropical bird species, including the Ocellated antbird (pictured), in a protected area in Panama's Parque Nacional Soberanía. The researchers can't definitively point to causes for the decline, but call it a concerning trend.
