Since 2002, NYC Bird Alliance has partnered with the September 11 Memorial & Museum to ensure that the annual Tribute in Light can honor lives while also keeping birds safe. As with every year, in 2024 our scientists monitored the Tribute from sunset to sunrise, shutting off the lights three times to ensure safe passage for migrating birds.

We had an amazing night at NYC Bird Alliance’s annual Fall Roost gala at Tavern on the Green! It was inspiring to bring together conservationists, bird lovers, and community leaders in celebration of our shared mission. Read our recap for highlights and photos from a memorable evening in Central Park.
