Welcome to Midway.

This is not actually the sign we saw when entering.  We couldn't really see anything when we arrived.  I couldn't even see the runway lights until we landed which was a bit disconcerting since I'm used to landing in NYC which lights everything for miles.  We had to land at night because there are over a million birds here and when they used to land during the day there'd be a birdstrike almost every other flight. So even if there's an emergency or something they'll still probably wait till dark since it does no good to have a rescue flight come in and hit a bird and then need another rescue flight.  The birds do still fly around at night but much less so.
