Baby Thrush Rescue
This time of year is so hectic for us, as all the baby birds and mammals come in. We are so full now, that we are having to try and divert them elsewhere, as hand rearing so many animals is such a drain on our time and even harder on work days. Some of these guys need […]
Tawny Owl Chick
This little chick was found on the forest floor with no sign of the parents. The chick came to us in reasonable health, although he/she would not have survived long on the ground with no parents. After a hours or so in an incubator to get him warm, we could feed him. Owl’s have to […]
Mallard Duckling
This young mallard duckling has been with us for a week now and doing well. The duckling was found on its own, with no parents around or any other ducklings.
