(AP) — When it comes to birds, Louisiana is faring better than many others thanks to the remaining expanses of undeveloped habitat. But that does not mean there are no problems or declines in the population of the state’s birds, ornithologists said.The top five Louisiana birds that are in decline are the Northern Bobwhite, the Eastern Meadowlark, the King Rail, the Seaside Sparrow and the Northern Flicker.
