✨🌌 Did you know? Each spring and fall, billions of songbirds take off on an incredible nighttime journey across North America. 🐦💫 But city lights can lure them off course — leaving them confused and at risk of deadly building collisions. 🏙️💡💥

🌍 The fix is simple (and powerful): turn off unnecessary lights at night during migration season. It’s called the Lights Out movement — and it saves countless birds, cuts energy use ⚡, and even lowers costs.

Let’s keep the skies safe and clear for our feathered travelers. 💙 Flip the switch. Save the songbirds.
📍 Hours: Tues–Sat 10–5 • Sun 12–4 (Closed Mondays)

💙✨ Blue Jays Are Here to Stay! ✨💙
Unlike some birds that migrate, Blue Jays live in Southeast Louisiana year-round — so you’ll hear their bold calls and see those flashes of blue in your backyard no matter the season. 🐦🌿

Want to invite them closer? Try this:
🥜 Fill feeders with peanuts, sunflower seeds, or suet
💧 Provide fresh water for drinking & bathing
🌳 Plant oak trees (they love acorns!)

🛒 Find all your Blue Jay favorites at Backyard Birds & Gardens!
📍 Hours: Tues–Sat 10–5 • Sun 12–4 (Closed Mondays)

Bring the beauty (and personality!) of Blue Jays right to your backyard. 💙
