The BirdCast model is predicting high intensity migration tonight!
An estimated 408 million birds will take flight tonight across the contiguous US tonight. There will be intense migration in many areas of the south central US from the Rio Grande Valley north and east into Tennessee. For those in areas predicted to experience high intensity migration, this will be a great opportunity to experience nocturnal migration by listening at night to vocal birds in flight or by observing tomorrow morning for new arrival and departures. In highly urbanized areas, especially cities in the central and southern US, it is also particularly important to turn off lights at night to avoid attracting birds into hazardous conditions in which they can collide with buildings and other structures. This is particular true for many areas of the south central US.
The expandable tables that follow detail what species will be on the move in your region of the US. For further information about BirdCast regions, species on the move, and the data we use, please visit this review page.
