Switch Off Your Lights, Wimberley: Spring Migration Has Begun!

As Hays County experiences the annual Spring migration from March 1 to June 15, thousands of birds take to the skies each night, with Bird-Cast reporting over 153,100 birds migrating over the area on March 20 alone. As the peak migration period approaches in late April, bird enthusiasts are encouraged to track activities via the BirdCast website. However, the journey is fraught with challenges, including the disorienting effects of light pollution, which is considered a major threat by the U.S. Fish and wildlife Service. Organizations like Wimberley Valley Dark Sky advocate for turning off unnecessary lights to support these migratory birds during this critical time. With ongoing threats such as habitat loss and bird flu, awareness and action are crucial for the survival of these avian travelers.
