Synopsis
Our world is becoming more populated with urban areas increasing. This causes more traffic, more noise and more streetlights. How can birds thrive in these urban environments? Birds already face so many challenges without human intervention; but now they have to navigate daily flight paths will tall buildings made of windows, migration paths that are becoming more lit up at night and communicating with each other above all the noise.
