Lights Out for Birds This Fall | Harrisburg News

Every year from August 15 to November 15, the Rachel Carson State Office Building joins Lights Out Harrisburg to help migratory birds navigate safely at night. City lights confuse birds relying on stars and moonlight, causing crashes or disorientation. Inspired by a tragic 2021 bird death event in Philadelphia, this simple act—dimming or turning off outdoor and upper-floor lights after midnight until 6 AM—makes a big difference. Your small change helps countless birds complete their southern journey without disaster. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
