Can we get to 180 more actions by December 1?! That’s 1 action for every 100 miles a #RedKnot flies on its 18k-mile migration, powered by horseshoe crab eggs. Link in bio. #HorseshoeCrabProtectionAct (2/2🧵)

Did you know horseshoe crabs are a keystone species? 🦀 Their eggs are a critical food source for Red Knots and many other migratory shorebirds. 🐦 Celebrate #WorldMigatoryBirdDay by taking 90 seconds to help us protect them. ➡️

Last year, 294 of you raised your voices for #HorseshoeCrabs—but it wasn’t enough to stop the veto. This year, let’s join forces and make an even bigger impact for these creatures and the birds that rely on them! 🐦🦀🌊 ➡️ link:

Last year @GovKathyHochul vetoed a bill that would have protected #HorseshoeCrabs from commercial harvesting. This year it’s back on her desk awaiting her signature.🖊️📜 Let her know you want NY State to protect Horseshoe Crabs!

Great news! The Gov. Mario M. Cuomo Bridge will start dimming its lights during spring & fall migration. Thank you to Rockland Audubon Society, @SierraClubNY, and @NYSThruway for working together to protect birds! 👏👏👏 Every light turned off saves birds' lives. #LightsOutNYC

Thrilled to be featured in @audubonsociety magazine! Our #NYCHA in Nature pilot helps public housing residents explore nature at their doorsteps. With @communityfundny, we're strengthening bonds with NYC's rich #biodiversity and empowering local advocates.
audubon.org
The city’s housing authority houses half a million people on campuses rich in green space. Advocates see that as a big opportunity to bring birding’s benefits to more New Yorkers.

6:58am: Some final updates 🌃 The #TributeinLight was only turned off once at 9:30pm 🕊️ Afterward, bird activity was minimal with a few dozen circling in the beams 🐦 Spotted species include American Redstarts, Northern Parulas, Connecticut Warbler, and a Common Nighthawk
