An 8-year-old girl was fatally struck by illegal fireworks on July 4th, according to the Buena Park Police Department.

"Disturbing roosting migratory birds at night can result in mass deaths," says Bateman. "Disturbing breeding birds can result in colony collapses. Seals and sea lions leave [affected] areas and expend energy swimming away during fireworks."

While Boston's Fourth of July show was last night, there are still plenty of chances to see fireworks in Massachusetts this weekend. More than 10 communities have firework shows planned over the weekend, meaning if there isn't one in your town you can still probably find one near you.
