- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 15 Nov, 2025 at 10:00 am – Sat, 15 Nov, 2025 at 12:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Join us at Lake Whitney State Park for an engaging and educational event focused on the vital role of reducing light pollution during the bird migration seasons. Each year, millions of birds embark on long and perilous journeys across Texas, navigating by natural light cues from the moon and stars. However, artificial lights from buildings and cities can confuse and disorient them, leading to dangerous collisions and exhaustion.

During this special event, you’ll have the opportunity to:
•	Watch a captivating short documentary that highlights the challenges migratory birds face and explains why turning off unnecessary lights is crucial to their survival.
•	Participate in a hands-on activity called The Great Migration: Risky Business, where you will simulate the obstacles, birds encounter during migration and gain a deeper understanding of their incredible journey.
•	Learn practical tips on how you can help protect migratory birds in your own community by minimizing light pollution.
