A billion birds a year are killed when they crash into buildings. You can help by turning out the lights

Monday, April 24th, 2023

Renewing Hartford’s Urban Bird Treaty

Friday, April 7th, 2023

Hartford was designated an Urban Bird Treaty city in 2011. The designation is up for renewal and the Connecticut Audubon Society, Friends of Keney Park, and Park Watershed are collaborating on an update. The result will be better habitat for birds throughout the city’s parks, and more chances for city residents to learn about and enjoy them.  The Urban Bird Treaty is a national network whose goal is to improve bird habitat in urban areas, and help city residents experience and learn about birds and the natural world.
