hi,
What affects migrating birds? Migrating birds are affected by the light because many birds travel at night to use the stars and moon to guide their way. One way to solve this problem is by turning off your lights at night. Another thing birds are affected by are windows up to 1 billion birds die every year because of collisions with clear or reflective glass. This problem is easily solvable by putting something on the window. Some examples of things that you could put on your windows are streamers, beads, translucent tape, or UV stickers which are less apparent to human eyes but still highly visible to birds.
Until next time,

Monarda:
- also known as bee balm
- grows wild in prairies and woodlands
- is a favorite amongst gardeners
Mountain Mint:
- minty aroma
-blooms for about 8 weeks in the summer
- mostly white blooms which are magnets for a variety of pollinators
Aster:
- bumblebee favorites in autumn
- important for a variety of plants to bloom throughout the summer
Goldenrod:
- critical late season plants for bumblebees
- bloom late summer into fall
- nurture a wide array of pollinators not just bumblebees
- important for fueling the long distance migrations of monarch butterflies

Hi,
This blog post is about baby bunnies and how rabbits (often called bunnies) take care of their young kittens (what baby bunnies are actually called). When people come across a nest of baby bunnies the kittens are left alone by the mama which causes people to think that the kittens have been abandoned by their mama, but that is usually not the case. Mama bunnies usually don’t go back to their young on a constant basis due to the threat of predators finding their unprotected kittens.
What do do when you find kittens:
1. Put long pieces of grass over the nest and wait at least 24 hours then check on the burrow if the grass has been disturbed then the mama takes care of her young if not then something could have happened to her.
2. If the grass was disturbed then leave the burrow of baby bunnies alone if it was not disturbed and they are truely abandoned then call a local wildlife rehab shelter nearby you.
Until next time, Grace
