Hand feeding some of our blackbird nestlings which is done at regular intervals throughout the day. And one of many mini aviaries with slightly older blackbirds preparing to become more independent, ready for eventually fledging.
We have over 30 young blackbirds in our care at the moment aswell as many adults too that have come in due to injuries.
To get a nestling to fledging stage will take around a month. This is a huge effort from the team and uses a large amount of resources.💛💙🧡

The chicks are currently doing well and don't keep still long enough to get a 'non- blurry' photo!💙💛🧡

🦆Hiccup and Robin 🦆are all grown up now and have started leaving the duck yard for several hours at a time some days to have a fly around. It'll not be long until the leave us for pastures new entirely. Before winter arrives, the ducklings will shed their ducking feathers and grow new feathers that will resemble the feathers of their respective adult genders.💙🦆💛

When looking after Wildlife we believe it important that the animals get to interact with those of their own kind. They can copy eachothers behaviours and keep eachother company. It also help with keeping them 'wild' and means they can be released together. Going into the big wide world with a friend is much less daunting.🧡💙💛

Thank you to all our supporters who make it possible to continue our work through donations.

🦉Science and Hooter🦉 weren't quite strong enough to be released with Lock, E.T, Snowy and Paul. We are very short of space at the Sanctuary though at the moment with more animals coming in everyday needing veterinary care. These two beauties now just need a quite place to continue feeding and build strength so have been moved to an experienced foster home until they are ready.🧡💙💛

We are desperately trying to raise funds to increase treatment units in our hospital. If you, your business, group, club or school would like to sponsor a unit for £24.99 please either give us a call or follow the link below for more information.

Inspirational Quotes for Animal Lovers

It is as easy to hold quicksilver between your finger and thumb as it is to hold a cat who means to escape.

Just a few pounds each month can make all the difference. It would mean we would never have to turn an animal away due to lack of funds. Visit our donation page to pledge your support.
