The BirdCast model is predicting high intensity migration for the continental US for the night of 10-11 September 2020.

We estimate this migration will comprise approximately 400 million birds, with the highest intensity movements in Texas and portions of the southern Appalachians and lower Mississippi River valley. This will be another amazing opportunity to experience migration, whether by listening at night to vocal birds in flight or observing the following morning for new arrival and departures. These intense movements also highlight an opportunity for conservation action – turn off lights at night to avoid attracting birds into hazardous conditions in which they can collide with buildings and other structures!

Species on the move

This high intensity movement will feature an array of species migrating at night. The expandable tables that follow detail what species will be on the move in your region of the US over the next days!
