LIGHTS OUT CHAPEL HILL! We are asking community members to turn off lights during bird migration seasons to help save birds, save energy, and save money. Simply turn off your lights after midnight during peak fall migration, Sept 1-Nov. 30. The majority of birds migrate at night, using the night sky to navigate. Artificial lights confuse their navigation and cause unnecessary collisions with buildings and loss of progress toward their destinations. See the details here.
NEW HOPE AUDUBON SWIFT EVENT: Join us on Sept. 20, 6:30 to 8:30 PM, as we gather on the Roof at the Durham Hotel to socialize, learn about swifts, and watch the swifts gather and then swirl into a local roost. See more detail on our calendar. Read more about swifts on the swift web page.
