Bird City Newsletters

In our September newsletter, we list the birds that are most vulnerable to collisions with home windows and pass along details about a webinar describing three easy ways you can prevent the collisions at your home. Also in this issue, we share tips for making your yard more bird-friendly and encourage readers to take a survey being conducted by the Wisconsin Society for Ornithology, which has embarked on a strategic planning process.

In our July 2023 newsletter, we announce that Bird City Wisconsin will be part of the Bird City Network, the ambitious bird-conservation program connecting cities across the Americas, and that next year's renewals will take place on Bird City Network website. Also in this issue, we present an interview with the director of ABC's Texas Coast Program about how Galveston became a Bird City.

In our June 2023 newsletter, we announce the long-awaited launch of the Bird City Network, an ambitious bird-conservation program connecting cities across the Americas, and invite you to join the celebration and learn more about the network in a webinar on Thursday, June 22, 2023, at 4 pm ET.
