An estimated one billion birds in North America are killed each year due to collisions with highly reflective windows. Brightly lit buildings often disorient birds migrating over urban areas at night, making window collisions even more likely. In 2021, Tropical Audubon Society launched Lights Out Miami, joining 45 other U.S. cities seeking to address the problem.

On Wednesday, November 8, join TAS Field Trip Coordinator Brian Rapoza for a Lights Out Miami presentation at Pelican Harbor Seabird Station, at 1279 NE 79th Street Causeway in Miami. During the one-hour presentation, Brian will describe ways that ordinary citizens can get involved in the Lights Out Miami initiative, including volunteering to collect bird collision data in their neighborhood or implementing window collision reduction strategies at home.

The presentation begins at 6pm. Join Brian and Pelican Harbor staff at 5:30pm for light drinks and snacks prior to the presentation.
