I was very impressed by these bloggers who are actively working to preserve and protect our birds and Environment!

Karen, also volunteers rehabbing sea birds.
Cheryl and Kathy spoke about the 500 birds recently sent to be rehabbed that were hurt during the Algae bloom in Washington and Oregon, and how devastating this Algae bloom was to the bird populations. They are both discouraged by the amount of birds they are seeing malnourished.
