8 Kauai Midweek October 19, 2022
This time of year, seabirds leave their nests at night and are guided by the light of the moon out to sea. Unfortunately, these birds can be attracted to artificial light by mistake and end up grounded. Once grounded they are often unable to regain flight, and become vulnerable to a variety of threats (e.g. predation, contamination, vehicle collisions).
Save Our Shearwaters rehabilitates all native Hawaiian birds and the Hawaiian Hoary Bat. If you find a grounded bird, please drop the bird off at the nearest Aid Station (listed below). Each bird receives a full assessment by SOS staff. Even seemingly healthy birds may need care before they are able to survive at sea!
