Newell's Shearwater
Fledging Season on Kauai
Newell's Shearwaters are native sea birds that nest in burrows in the ground in the upper forest areas of Kaua'i. From September 15 to December 15, the young birds take their first flight to sea to begin their adult life of fishing and flying. This first flight is a true leap of faith and instinct. Guided by the moon they head out to sea to learn the ways of the ocean and wind.
We can help them by turning all outside lights down or off and keeping interior lights low next to windows.
