The Lights Out DFW! initiative in North Texas is more than just a program: it’s a movement fueled by the passion we’ve seen in every conversation.

Audubon Dallas board members Jocelyn Womack and Karen Carpenter are proud to participate in weekly morning surveys to document bird window strike fatalities in downtown Dallas.

This year’s surveys are coordinated by a dedicated group of volunteers, with Tim Brys, a founding member of Lights Out Dallas!, helping lead logistics with support from partner organizations, like Audubon Dallas and others.

You don’t have to be a surveyor to save a bird! There are many ways to be part of the initiative this spring:

🐦‍⬛Flip the Switch: Ensure all non-essential lights are off from 11 p.m. to 6 a.m.
🐦‍⬛Spread the Word: Learn how you can get involved through Audubon Texas toolkit:
🐦‍⬛Advocate: Encourage your city leaders and neighbors to participate in the Lights Out effort.

Today isn’t just another Tuesday.

It’s a day when generosity becomes action—when people across the world come together to protect what matters most.

For Audubon Dallas, what matters is Cedar Ridge Preserve.

If you’ve ever walked its trails, heard a warbler’s call echo through the trees, or watched a child light up during a nature program, you know this place is more than a park. It’s a sanctuary—one that depends entirely on people like you.

Cedar Ridge Preserve is one of the most visited natural spaces in Texas. Yet unlike a state park, it survives only because our community chooses to protect it.

Your Giving Tuesday donation ensures this incredible place remains wild, open, and thriving.
