A researcher at the University of Saskatchewan wants to know how birds, particularly songbirds, are being impacted by wildfires and smoke.

Catherine Ivy, a bird lover and assistant professor at the University of Saskatchewan college of arts and science, is leading the project.

"I've always been interested in how birds are able to conduct their long migratory flights, and was interested in how animals change their breathing to deal with challenging environments," Ivy said.
