My apologies if you’ve been getting a lot of calls from Mexico. I had to do a pat down and barry had an old burner phone on him. He got your number when he stole your identity off your taxes. Do not buy the wet squirrel warranty!! This is out of control.

Under tonight's full moon, we can anticipate an estimated 30 million birds will migrate across the continental States! Migrating birds use the moon and stars to navigate at night, and studies have shown that the presence or lack of moonlight influences when they take flight. This is a great time to remember one simple way we can make a big impact for birds: limit light pollution!

When we minimize our use of artificial lights at night, in and around our homes, buildings and elsewhere in our communities, birds are better able to navigate their ancient migratory routes and are less at risk for collisions. It is also a win-win for us because less light at night is better for our human health, energy use and costs, and improved night sky viewing! 💡 For more info on the threat of nighttime lighting, check out the link commented below.

There are ways you can reduce avian window strikes:
Deterrents include stickers, exterior screens, etched glass, or vertical cords on the outside of windows, closing the blinds, pretty much anything that breaks up the reflections

Though it seems like we are starting over the seasons with winter round 7, spring still is around the corner and nesting baby season is quickly approaching.

No one ever wants to say goodbye to a loved one, and though the field we are in we see a lot of loss; it never gets easier. That is, with a heavy heart I regret to announce that Junior, our education ambassador, has crossed the rainbow bridge.

He had a great personality and loved to see all the kids that would “ooh” and “ahh” at him. He knew he was handsome and never tried to hide it. He has touched, taught, and changed many lives while with us.

Many factors contribute to the lifespan of an animal, especially one with a history like Juniors, so we weren’t sure how long we had. But we wanted to enjoy what time we could and to not dread what we couldn’t control.

Known longer term effects of malnutrition are liver disease, kidney insufficiency, developmental issues, etc.

We knew that these issues were going to be life long and not 100% reversible, but quality of life would be worth the fight so that’s what we did for the almost 6 years that Junior was with us. Though we loved his little “quirks”, we knew they were not just from being hand raised prior to him coming into the rehab, but were also rooted in the developmental effects of malnutrition.

We appreciate all of our community’s support throughout the years, and we hope that Junior made as big of an impression on you all as he did on us.

Our journey towards continuing education and conservation will not be the same without Junior, but we are honored to have had the opportunity to do so.

Please understand it will take some time to recover from this loss, but when we are ready, we will proceed with education outreach programs. Stay tuned for updates
