Every year, countless birds in Texas die from collisions with glass windows and disorientation caused by bright artificial light at night. They can’t see clear glass and often fly into light-distracted hazards during migration.

How you can help:

Flip the switch: Turn off non-essential lights between 11 PM and 6 AM during peak migration seasons.

Make glass visible: Apply bird-safe window decals, tape, or pattern treatments to eliminate harmful reflections.

Celebrating our incredible interns, Juana Arun and Symone Speed-Jones, who wrapped up their internship with Trinity Park Conservancy last week! 🌳✨

Through our partnership with Dallas Works, powered by the All Stars Project, Inc., Juana and Symone brought fresh perspectives, energy, and dedication to our team while gaining hands-on, real-world experience. Dallas Works connects youth ages 16–21 with meaningful paid internships across the city, preparing the next generation of Dallas’s workforce to step up, lead, and make an impact.

Juana and Symone, thank you for all your hard work and contributions to Trinity Park Conservancy. We can’t wait to see the amazing things you’ll accomplish next! πŸš€πŸ’™

That’s a wrap on Year 6 of the Trinity River Crew! πŸŒŠπŸƒ Six years of getting our hands dirty, restoring native habitats, and protecting local watersheds, and none of it happens alone. It takes a dedicated network of community leaders, educators, and supporters to keep this momentum growing year after year.

A special thank you to Bank of America and Texas Capital for their generous corporate sponsorship and ongoing investment in our local environment and future leaders. πŸŒΏπŸ™Œ

Here’s to six incredible years of impact and to building a greener, more resilient North Texas for years to come! πŸ’šβœ¨

Looking back on Week 5 and realizing we only have TWO WEEKS left with the Trinity River Crew! ⏳🌿

Time is flying, but the crew isn't slowing down! Here’s a look at everything we tackled last week as we push toward the finish line:

πŸ› οΈ TUESDAY: Joined forces with Texas Conservation Alliance at the Dallas Zoo to clear invasive plants on Monarch Mountain, explore the butterfly & reptile exhibits, and map out our latest iNaturalist.org goals!

πŸ§ͺ WEDNESDAY: Headed up to Texas Woman's University University to connect with water scientist Dr. Kelly Albus! We explored environmental careers and got a hands-on demo on "tampling" a unique method for testing local water quality. πŸ’§

πŸ” THURSDAY: Crew turned teachers! We hosted youth from Wesley-Rankin Community Center down at the Trinity River levees, leading rotations on birding, plant ID, macroinvertebrates, and water chemistry.

🌱 FRIDAY: Greenhouse day with Texas Conservation Alliance! We cleared privet, learned plant propagation techniques, and wrapped up with an eye-opening talk on protecting migratory birds in Dallas. πŸ¦†πŸ’‘

Mentoring the next generation of outdoor scientists! πŸŒ‰πŸŒ±

A fantastic morning out at the Trinity River levees! The Trinity River Crew had the pleasure of teaching the younger Wesley-Rankin Community Center students the ropes of environmental field work. πŸ’§πŸƒ

Our team led hands-on rotations for all four key surveys:

πŸ¦… Binocular basics & Merlin bird ID

🌿 Plant identification & cataloging (iNaturalist.org)

πŸ› Catching & examining macroinvertebrates

πŸ§ͺ Running water chemistry tests

From getting their hands dirty with water samples to mastering bird watches, the students soaked up every bit of it! Big shoutout to our crew for being such awesome mentors. πŸ§ͺπŸ“Š

Weeks 3 & 4 in the books β€” and the Trinity River Crew has been busy! πŸŒΏπŸ’§

Week 3 kicked off with storm drain marking through Uptown and Turtle Creek alongside David and Sam from the City of Dallas β€” a reminder that everything entering a drain flows straight to our river. πŸŒ€ Then the crew headed to John Bunker Sands Wetland Center, where educator Susey Woodruff showed them how wetlands naturally filter our water before they got to work pulling invasive Johnson grass by the roots and birding the boardwalk with Merlin ID and eBird. πŸ¦…

Week 4 took them to Ten Mile Creek Nature Preserve for trail cleanup and gardening with Dallas County park rangers, then to the Trinity River Audubon Center β€” once an illegal dump site, now a thriving preserve and a powerful example of environmental injustice reversed. There, the crew ran plant, bird, macroinvertebrate, and water chemistry surveys alongside TRAC educator Genesis and Gabriel Juarez, a 2025 TRC alum now interning at TRAC. Full circle! πŸ’š

In between field days, crew members logged survey data, built solar power boxes with Rick, and made progress on the final presentations they'll share at the Trinity Park Conservancy office at the end of the summer.
