Millions of birds migrate across #Texas each spring. Help make their journey safer by turning off non-essential lights after dark to reduce bird-building collisions.

Protect Birds from Glass Collisions: Dim Lights at Nights, Treat Glass By Day: YouTube video by Cornell Lab of Ornithology

Dim or switch off nonessential lights at night — especially during migration seasons.

Treat glass by day with bird-friendly solutions like decals, patterns, or films to make windows visible to birds.

What a wonderful story. Thank you to Chicago's McCormick Place Lakeside for caring enough to make a meaningful change to protect wildlife. #StopBirdCollisions

After a mass bird collision in Oct 2023, Chicago’s McCormick Place Lakeside took action, installing bird-friendly dots on nearly 2 football fields of glass. Collisions have dropped dramatically. Real change is possible. Learn more: bit.ly/stopbirdcoll...

Over 1 billion birds die each year in the U.S. after hitting glass they can't see. But we can change that. Go inside the flight tunnel at Western University where researchers are testing bird-safe glass. Learn more + how to help: bit.ly/stopbirdcoll...

Stop Bird Collisions Birds flying into windows, railings, balusters, and other structures made from glass is a leading cause of global bird loss.

🧵This is a doozy of #MigrationMonday! 378 million birds are expected to take to the skies tonight as they migrate to their breeding grounds! Birds migrate at night, so please remember to turn off your lights 2night to help prevent bird collisions with buildings. #stopbirdcollisions #BringBirdsBack

@cornellbirds Peak spring migration is fast approaching, and with it comes a serious threat to birds across North America. By making simple changes to your home or building, you can help protect birds and support their journeys. stopbirdcollisions.org #StopBirdCollisions #LightsOutForBirds
