On The Bird Banter Podcast Episode #38 I talk with Alex Israel, a conservation activist with the Safe Flights program of the New York City Audubon Society. The combination of human light at night in cities combined with glass exterior skyscrapers in major migratory bird flyways is a lethal one to many songbirds. Listen to hear about this and more.

This is the article I mention on nocturnal calls and “supercollider” species that are especially at risk from nighttime lights and skyscrapers. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/04/190402215613.htm
Here is a link to info about The Central Park Effect documentary I mention on the episode. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2310157/
