🌊 SF Bay is a vital stop on the Pacific Flyway. Millions of migrating seabirds rely on our healthy watershed to rest, refuel, and find shelter from harsh storms. Local actions protect these global travelers. Let's keep this critical habitat and it's annual visitors thriving! 🪶 #pacificflyway

Healthy watersheds protect SF Bay by filtering pollution, sustaining wildlife & preventing erosion. We can all do our part to protect this vital ecosystem by picking up pet waste, using native plants, reducing plastic & joining cleanups. Let’s protect the lifeblood of the Bay. 💙 #BayQuest #SFBay

🌊 SF Bay is one of the most invaded estuaries. Invasives like Water Hyacinth, Spartina & Wakame choke native life & destroy habitats. Help stop the spread: 1⃣ Clean, drain & dry watercraft 2⃣ Never release aquarium plants 3⃣ Volunteer with local conservation orgs Let's all protect our Bay! 🌿

🌊 In the SF Bay, 250+ invasive species make up 90% of the biomass in some areas! 🦀 Shellfish like the overbite clam hitchhike in ship ballast water and starve native wildlife. Help stop the spread! Remember to Clean, Drain, Dry all boats, kayaks, & fishing gear before changing spots. 🧼🚣‍♂️
