It seems the eagles have survived the last eight years of indigent humans lighting fireworks in their chosen habitat. Let it be.

He also said that the different harmonics and gunpowder smell may cause distress in wildlife vs the thunder harmonics and ozone.

I had an wildlife biologist friend tell me that it is the vibrational frequency differences.

Thunderstorms are natural AND the thunder doesn't rumble for as long. Even so I've observed birds and burros both startling and moving after s particularly loud clap of thunder. I'm guessing other less visible wilds react similarly.

What do the eagles do during thunderstorms and lightning strikes?

To describe the show in one word, it was concussive.
Every shell blew at half the usual altitude, which is why it was the loudest show ever, ive seen 25 shows at a minimum, last years took it for variety and color, this years was all about the boom. Great show but not considerate of our eagles. I'll be looking at the cams first thing, i hope for the best...
