Thanks to @burlingtongreen.bsky.social for sending volunteers to clean this section of Burlington Bay shoreline during recent Eco-Action days at the Beach. Led by BFHB Co-chair Dave, we collected 12 full bags of litter! This area is a big litter trap and a designated Important Bird Area.

Happy Earth Day, everyone! We hope you not only take time to appreciate our earth today and the creatures that inhabit it, but also choose a new conservation action you can take. Why not commit to treating your window(s) with bird-friendly markers? Lots of options here: flap.org/stop-birds-f...

Spring bird migration is ON (peaks mid-May, ends early June). Millions of birds will pass overhead while we sleep; many will stop to refuel around our communities. Let's keep them safe:
Dim non-essential lights, close curtains/blinds at night
Keep cats indoors
Treat glass flap.org/stop-birds-f...
