Our state is located along the Atlantic Flyway, so many birds use our shoreline and green spaces to rest and refuel during their trip north. Artificial light emitted by houses, buildings, streetlights, bridges, and other structure can confuse and disorient birds, causing them to land near buildings, crash into windows, or circle around for hours until they drop from exhaustion. Light pollution also impacts other wildlife and the wellbeing of humans. Learn what can be done to mitigate the damage. Lecture by Craig Repasz, chair and co-founder of Lights Out Connecticut and an accomplished birder. Registration requested but not required. Free admission.

Shorebirds are some of the champions of the bird world when it comes to migration. Most species that can be seen in Connecticut breed in the far north in the Arctic, and they pass through the state on their way north, stopping along our coastline and wetlands. In this webinar, Conservation and Education Coordinator Joe Attwater will review this incredible group of birds and which ones you can expect to see in Connecticut.
