For bird’s sake: Help protect young seabirds as they take their first flight
Every fall during seabird fallout season, from roughly Sept. 15 to Dec. 15, the fledglings leave their nests to make their inaugural journeys to the ocean. When they do, they can become disoriented by artificial light, collide with man-made structures or become exhausted and fall, making them vulnerable to automobiles and predators.
