The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) is sending a reminder that nesting season is underway for sea turtles, shorebirds, seabirds, and wading birds.

It might seem strange, but those flocks of shorebirds and seabirds you see on Northeast Florida’s beaches actually prefer not to nest on our sandy shores, if they have a choice. Unfortunately, in Northeast Florida, the birds are running out of those rooftop options as a lot of businesses change their roofing style.
