pyrofest

Question

I'm watching the local news. They are having something called, 'Pyrofest'. It's an over-the-top fireworks display that will last for hours. It's in a wooded park outside a residential area. All I can think of is all the birds/wildlife with babies, being scared to death. Not to mention the pets that are frightened of fireworks. I don't want to sound like a fun killer, but they use sound cannons to keep the birds from the crops. These fireworks could really disrupt the nesting birds, etc.

These fireworks could really disrupt the nesting birds, etc.So can Mother Nature when she kicks up a good thunderstorm.

Somehow, animals learn to tolerate us noisy humans..... I just hope they don't set the woods on fire!

I sure hope it doesn't disturb the wildlife. I hope no one's panicked dog runs off. I know wildlife get used to thunderstorms but prolonged bangs and gunpowder odors for hours and hours?

When shooting, fireworks, thunder and other loud noises occur Sarah goes to the bathroom and climbs into the tub. We put a dog pillow in it so she gets comfy. We call her our weather forecaster as she can sense a storm hours before it finally hits the area. If she heads for the bathroom and there are no other noises you can bet that a storm is on the way. The other two just wait until it starts and then want on our laps a covered by a blanket.
