In Loving Memory of Robyn Goodwin (2001–2025)

Robyn Goodwin took her own life in October 2025 at the age of 24, after living with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) since she was just 14 years old.
Robyn was a talented artist whose creativity reflected her gentle and thoughtful nature. She had a deep love for animals and found it heartbreaking to see them suffer—perhaps because she understood suffering so intimately herself.
A year before she died, Robyn completed an Animal Husbandry course, hoping to build a career working with animals. It was a dream that reflected her lifelong compassion and her desire to protect and care for the natural world.
She longed to be outdoors, watching wildlife, painting the natural world, and helping to protect it. She planted trees because she believed that nature is what keeps us alive, and she wanted to play her part in caring for it. As her illness progressed, however, those simple joys were gradually taken from her. By 2025, she could barely leave her home. She could no longer be out there watching the wildlife she loved.
Despite the immense challenges she faced, Robyn continued to show extraordinary compassion and kindness towards others. She will be remembered for her artistic talent, her empathy, and the love she gave so freely to animals and the natural world.
Though her life was far too short, Robyn touched many hearts. May she be remembered not for the illness that limited her life, but for the creativity, kindness and compassion that defined it.

Look at these two beautiful Dunnock fledglings brough home seemingly unharmed by a cat, they looked perfectly healthy but there is a hidden injury and luckily for them the owner of the cat took swift action to help them..... 👍

A ruptured airsac, without antibiotics they would have died. Cats saliva is also exceptionally toxic to young birds so when they preen within hours they rapidly go downhill, I know as I've observed this for years. So if put back outside their once doting parents more often than not choose not to feed the injured fledglings which makes them perfect vocal targets for predators.

I can't stress this enough but just releasing wildlife caught by cats because they seem OK will almost certainly result in their death within 24-48hours 😔

Please, please reach out for advice, a link that is really helpful is helpwildlife.co.uk

Good afternoon all,

Spring is officially here, I wanted to share a quick glimpse of how my last few days have been spent watching these beautiful blackbirds grow, they should shortly choose to end their nestling phase and move out to explore their surroundings, feeding is still every 30 minutes at this age. I do love that beautiful sound they make, I hope you do too, once out of the nest they will soon start their fledgling stage of rehabilitation and be introduced to live feed after a few days alongside support feeding 😍

Thanks for reading, Unity team

Meet Kevin,

This stunning Goshawk was found injured in woodland in an undisclosed location.
The right wing had sustained a minor fracture, which has since healed sufficiently enough so the hawk can sustain flight. However, these birds are incredible hunters that rely on an extreme level of agility and manoeuvrability on the wing in order to catch their prey. Any injury to the wing on these creatures will almost certainly be a significant handicap when it comes to hunting success, and so he has come to stay with us at Unity Wildlife, where our resident falconer will provide him a forever home with the opportunity to fly - so that he may still live the life intended for a Goshawk, but without the fear of starvation if he not successful in hunting his own meals.

Can anyone guess what this is ?

Pictures are of a teeny tiny hatchling in my husbands hand, in the second you can see my smaller hand for comparison.

UPDATE: It's a little Wren, one of the UK's smallest birds :-)

Hello,

Just sharing a couple of the cases I have had in recently, firstly a beautiful Great spotted fledgling Woodpecker caught by a cat. This bird went on to make a full recovery and was released last weekend.
5 ducklings which came in 3 bundles, two were released several weeks ago as older, the 3 remaining joined them last weekend. A video will follow of their release.
And finally a little baby bunny who is still with me was scooped up by a kind finder, feeding for this little one is every couple of hours right now which will increase over time

Happy Wednesday everyone!!

Hello,

Sorry for the lack of posts, we are all very busy at present, I wanted to share this educational picture of a recent success story for one fledgling Bluetit who is now in my aviary getting ready for release alongside another Bluetit and Great tit.

This little one was caught by a cat and whilst most owners simple take the bird caught off their cat assuming all is well then release straight back outside, this is not the right thing to do. This particular fledgling had a ruptured air sack which increases in size over a few hours. What's more is cats saliva is toxic to birds! So when the fledgling preens it will eventually die from blood poisoning.

Please do reach out to a rehabber if your ever in this position, every life counts!
