SUMMARY:Presentation: Dark Skies Over the RGV
DESCRIPTION:Did you know most migratory birds fly at night? But city lights can disorient birds\, causing them to stray off track. This can lead to collisions with buildings and also imperils their health as they waste precious energy in confusion.\nLight pollution is on the rise worldwide\, not only affecting the nighttime behaviors of birds and other wildlife\, but impacting human health\, too\, and our ability to see the stars. The good news is that it’s one of the most easily reversible forms of pollution!\n\nJoin DarkSky Texas RGV Outreach Coordinator Jennifer Rektorik at Wild Birds Unlimited McAllen for a one-hour talk about the five principles of responsible outdoor lighting and ways we can protect the night skies of the Rio Grande Valley.\n\nPlus\, stay after for a native plant sale!
