Lights Out Texas! @ Within Our Homes and Neighborhood
Apr 19 @ 6:00 pm – May 6 @ 6:00 am

Every spring and fall, billions of birds migrate through the US, mostly under the cover of darkness. This mass movement of birds must contend with a dramatically increasing but still largely unrecognized threat: light pollution.

What BirdCast needs you to do:

  • Join BirdCast by committing to turn lights off from 11:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. during critical migration periods.
  • Talk with friends, businesses, elected officials, schools, and other stakeholders and get them to join the movement, too!
  • Share your support for the cause via social media and with local media.
