Asheville, a program that can benefit birds and save energy and money through the implementation of measures that support the safety of resident and migratory birds. This includes a lights-out commitment during migration months and bird-safe window treatments.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAsheville exists along a major migratory path for birds as part of the greater Atlantic Flyway,\u201d says Danielle DiBella-Lenaway, CBFA co-founder and Blue Ridge Audubon Chapter board member. \u201cBecause birds use the moon and stars as their guides, artificial city lights confuse them and draw them away from the safety of this pathway, causing them to fatally collide with windows and cars and succumb to predators.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hundreds of bird species, many of which are declining in population, use this migratory route. It is estimated that on a peak migration night during spring or fall, more than 50,000 birds pass over Asheville every hour. Mayor Esther Manheimer recently signed a proclamation that designates March\u2013May and September\u2013November as \u201cMigratory Bird Awareness Months,\u201d and has entrusted Blue Ridge Audubon Chapter and the CBFA to create a Lights Out! program that is supported by the Asheville residential and business community.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThrough my undergraduate research project at UNCA, I determined that more than 1,000 collisions occurred at eight buildings on campus during a 15-week period,\u201d says CBFA co-founder and Blue Ridge Audubon Chapter Lights Out! coordinator Paulina Jones. \u201cThis is a conservative estimate for a variety of reasons.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To reduce the number of collisions, individuals and businesses can do the following:<br \/>\n\u00b7 Turn off unnecessary indoor and outdoor lighting (especially near the tops of buildings).<br \/>\n\u00b7 Put necessary lighting on timers or use motion<br \/>\nsensors.<br \/>\n\u00b7 Use warmer-temperature LED lighting in outdoor<br \/>\nfixtures.<br \/>\n\u00b7 Make sure external lighting is down-shielded.<br \/>\n\u00b7 Dim or extinguish lobby or atrium lighting.<br \/>\n\u00b7 Close blinds or curtains at night to prevent light<br \/>\nleakage.<\/p>\n<p>It is particularly important to take these measures between the hours of midnight and sunrise (when most night migrants are flying) and during spring and fall migration periods (March\u2013May and September\u2013November). In addition to helping birds, these efforts have the additional benefits of reducing your energy usage, shrinking your carbon footprint and saving money.<\/p>\n<p><em>Learn more and gain community recognition for your commitment to Lights Out!
