The Louisville Audubon Society reminds you that peak Spring Bird Migration occurs in April and May. Please consider participating in LIGHTS OUT LOUISVILLE to make your home, neighborhood, and our city more bird-friendly. For more information, visit www.louisvilleaudubon.org and following our prompt on the home page to our LIGHTS OUT LOUISVILLE page.
If you yourself go to that page (- https://www.audubon.org/our-work/cities-and-towns/lights-out), you will find out that:
- Most birds migrate at night (3.7 million birds flew over Jefferson County on Derby Night last year!)
- Night lights confuse birds
- Hundreds of millions of birds die in the US every year because of building collisions, especially at night.
- Together we can reduce those numbers. Forty-nine other U.S. Cities already participate in the Audubon LIGHTS OUT program, including Cincinnati and Indianapolis.
Between 11 p.m. and 6 a.m.
RESIDENTS CAN:
- Turn off unnecessary lights indoors. Shades, blinds and curtains can be used to prevent the glare from indoor lights shining through windows and confusing low-flying birds.
- Turn off unnecessary lights outdoors, which protects birds and reduces electric bills.
- Put necessary lighting on timers or use motion sensors, which not only protect birds but alert you if someone is in your yard after dark.
- Make sure external lighting is down-shielded so light shines where people need it, not upward into the night sky, which confuses birds.
BUILDING MANAGERS CAN TAKE THE ABOVE STEPS AND ALSO:
- Turn off unnecessary lighting especially near the tops of buildings
- Dim or extinguish lobby or atrium lighting
We have a strong opportunity for a WIN-WIN situation here, one that protects birds and reduces energy costs, while still living safely.
Thank you so much for your time and consideration of this request. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at louisvilleaudubon@gmail.com .
Sincerely,
The Louisville Audubon Society Board of Directors

Gardening can bring physical, mental, and even spiritual benefits to individuals of all ages. There’s just something about being outdoors on a sunny day and enjoying the feel and the smells of the natural world around us. However, as we age, gardening may be a little more challenging than it used to be. Joints get stiffer, making it harder to bend down and pull weeds or plant seeds. Arthritis can make it difficult to hold a trowel and dig in the dirt. Other health conditions can also affect a senior’s ability to enjoy gardening. Here are some tips to help seniors continue their favorite hobby.
1. Pace Yourself
One thing you can do in the garden is slow down. As we age, our stamina decreases, so our body needs more frequent breaks and shouldn’t be pushed as far. Pace yourself; work for a while and then relax for a while. When you’re tired, you are also more prone to accidents and injuries, regardless of your age. For example, seniors could experience dangerous falls when they are fatigued.
2. Dress the Part
When working outside, it’s important to protect your skin. To avoid overheating or sunburns, wear lightweight clothing that covers most of your skin. While it might seem counterintuitive to wear a long-sleeved shirt on a hot day, long sleeves that are lightweight and breathable can actually help keep you cool and protect your skin. And don’t forget the sunscreen!
You should also consider a big hat that can keep the sun off your face. We recommend wearing sunglasses and gardening gloves. You can also purchase cooling towels that can help you regulate your body temperature. Of course, your shoes are important too! Flip flops or sandals could cause you to trip easily. Look for closed-toed shoes that offer plenty of traction and comfort.
3. Pick the Right Time of Day
Gardening during the hottest part of the day is never a good idea! Part of the reason is because plants can absorb more water during the morning or evening because the sun can cause some of the water to evaporate during the hottest hours. Instead, try gardening in the early morning or early evening, which are much cooler but still provide needed sunlight. This can help seniors remain cooler while working outside, too.
4. Use the Right Tools
Seniors should leverage the right tools to work smarter and not harder. Here are some tips to choosing the right tools:
Look for gardening tools for seniors with long, brightly colored handles. These are easier to see, so you won’t lose your tools. Plus, longer handles allow you to reach further without bending over.
Get a garden stool. Standing for long periods of time and constantly bending down can wear you out! A stool nearby can help you conserve energy as you work and have a good spot to rest when you need to.
Choose strong, lightweight tools with long rubber handles. These can reduce stress on your joints.
When planting, try seed tape. This tape is actually full of tiny seeds in a thin, degradable tape. To plant, you just unroll the tape and lay it over your soil. Then cover. Seed tape can reduce the time you spend planting and reduces small movements, which can be trickier as you get older.
5. Raise Your Garden
Have you thought about bringing your garden closer to you? Raised gardens for seniors allow access to your plants without kneeling or stooping. This helps protect aching knees and backs! Build or buy raised garden beds that are 2 to 3 feet tall. You can even install wide top boards to give you a built-in bench. Long narrow beds are best so that you can reach each inch of your garden. Install some trellises to keep plants growing upward and still within reach.
6. Involve Others
Do you have a neighbor who's interested in gardening? Swap your gardening knowledge for help with heavy digging or lifting. Is there a family member who struggles to find you the perfect gift? Ask for a homemade gift certificate for pruning the roses or loosening the garden soil in the spring. Getting gardening help from others can help you maintain your garden without going overboard. Plus, gardening is a great way to spend quality time with others.
7. Choose the Right Plants
If gardening is becoming more difficult, you might want to swap out some of your high-maintenance plants for low-maintenance ones that will easily grow in your climate. You might also want to consider the uses and benefits of certain plants. For example, there are herbs that can help fight diseases, like ginkgo, basil, or ginseng.
8. Stay Hydrated
Gardening is hard work! In fact, it’s a great workout for older adults. That’s why it’s important to stay hydrated — especially on hot days. Bring a water bottle with you and make sure you drink from it! Dehydration in older adults can be very dangerous.
9. Address Fall Hazards
There can be lots of fall hazards in your yard that could cause you to sustain severe injuries. These could include roots that are sticking up, branches scattered on the lawn, uneven spots on your back porch, etc. Address these safety hazards as soon as you can.

The role of the PVA is to fairly assess the value of property in Jefferson County. This is an important part of the process to determine the taxes collected to fund our cities, school districts, and emergency services. We do our best to determine accurate property values, but we don’t know every detail of all properties. The condition of a property could mean it falls substantially below or above the median value. That’s why it’s so important taxpayers know about their right to appeal.
Your help to share information and drive attendance at our public meetings is extremely important: the required first step for those who wish to appeal in 2024 is available only from April 26th to May 20th.
