Fall migration is about to begin, and millions of birds will soon be traveling through Georgia overnight (yes, most birds migrate at night! 🌙 ).

Artificial lighting can disorient migrating birds, increasing their risk of colliding with buildings. By turning off non-essential outdoor lights between midnight and sunrise during peak migration, you can help make the night sky safer for birds traveling through our state.

Small actions can make a big difference!

Join Birds Georgia in protecting migrating birds this season by participating in Lights Out Georgia. We’ll share Lights Out Alerts when peak migration is expected, letting you know when it’s especially important to turn off non-essential lights.

Don’t rely on the algorithm to deliver our alerts! Sign up for email alerts so you’ll know when it’s time to take action.

We are brokenhearted to hear of the passing of Jackie, Big Bear Valley's bald eagle matriarch. Many of us have watched her raise eaglets over several seasons (via nestcam) along with her partner Shadow. BBV won't be the same. 💔

Patient Update: Bald Eagle 26-519

It is with profound sadness that we share that Patient 26-519 passed away in the early hours of this morning, following more than three weeks of intensive medical care.

Over the past several days, her condition continued to deteriorate despite intensive treatment and the combined efforts of our veterinary team and consulting specialists. She remained critically ill, receiving oxygen therapy, supportive treatment, and around-the-clock monitoring in our intensive care unit.

Throughout her time at Ojai Raptor Center, every decision was guided by the available medical evidence, her welfare, and our responsibility to do what was in her best interest.

Her remains have been transferred into the care of the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW).

We know this news will be deeply felt by the many thousands of people around the world who have followed her journey, hoped alongside us, prayed for her, and supported the people caring for her.

Our team is heartbroken. It has been an extraordinary privilege to care for her.

We ask for patience and kindness as our staff process this loss. We are working closely with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the California Department of Fish and Wildlife and will provide a more comprehensive statement including additional information on her treatments and test results.

To protect our staff and community during this difficult time, comments on this post have been turned off.

To everyone who cared about Patient 26-519, thank you. Thank you for your messages, your prayers, your encouragement, and for standing beside our team throughout these past weeks. We are deeply grateful for the way Patient 26-519 brought people together through a shared love of wildlife.
