The night sky holds more than the moon and stars. It’s also home to migrating birds that mostly make their journeys at night. I chat with Andrew Farnsworth of Cornell Lab of Ornithology about the impact of light pollution on migrating birds. He shares easy solutions that homeowners and business owners can use to help protect our feathered friends from collisions with buildings while navigating at night.
