I support this petition
 

Osprey nests in Virginia’s lower Chesapeake Bay are failing at the highest rate ever recorded, according to data released by the College of William & Mary’s Center for Conservation Biology. According to the Center, young osprey are starving in nests because the decades long overharvest of menhaden has caused local depletion.  This is an alarm call!  This petition is a must!
