I hope you’re wearing a well fitting N95 mask while outside in these conditions, friend! Wildfire smoke does terrible things to your body. And birds are even more sensitive (and don’t have masks), I hope they’ll be alright too.
Yeah I had a brand new N95 on. I saw too many people with their kids out and no masks... I was really concerned for the wildlife, but it seemed to be coping well enough. Animals weren't as active as they typically are for sure. I made sure to give them extra space too. We're still getting smoked out, but it's not nearly as bad.
