If you go for a walk outside tonight, listen for tiny short chirps from high up above. It’s the sound of birds on a loooooong journey. Fall migration is ON!
Many birds migrate at night, including my favorites, the wood-warblers (and the red-eyed vireo up above). It’s a huge, amazing hidden phenomenon happening over our heads as we sleep; the massive clouds of birds even show up on radar. The trip from north to south is dangerous for the little critters. If you hear the chirps, wish ‘em luck! (And find out how to make their lives a little easier here.)
