Duck Release

ByJon

Early yesterday morning before the rest of the world was up we did a quick duck release. This handsome boy has been with us a few weeks and really couldn’t wait to see the back of us. We can never tell a wild animal why we are putting needles in them, tube feeding them, giving them foul tasting meds or have them in captivity.

We always, always aim to release animals back into the wild……..including that ‘little owl’ that we released quite a few weeks ago that insists on coming for his tea every night!!……go, will you!!!

    Pair of Book Ends

    ByJon

    At the sanctuary we receive calls at all times of day and night, not easy when we also work for a living, sometimes when we return home the voice mail is full and we have to prioritise the return calls. Last night we took two calls around midnight, one was for these two beautiful Doves. A member of the public found these two birds just…
