What a beautiful change in the weather this week! We’ve still been just as busy. Here’s what we’ve been up to instead of lapping it up ourselves:

  • Our grumpy swan caught up in a finishing line/hook had a successful release post treatment at SEWH-after making the long (and expensive) journey there and back to bring him home safely we had high hopes the mate he left behind would still be waiting but she was nowhere to be seen…until later that day we received the stunning photo of them both reunited! A truly happy ending that fully defines why we put in all the time and effort for these animals.
  • We had 5 little rabbit kittens come to us after their home burrow was damaged. Unfortunately we lost the smallest-he was a whole 100g lighter than the other 4, which are doing very well and are now staying outdoors and feeding themselves.
  • 2 squads came in after their nesting tree was cut down due to safety reason and were hidden so well they weren’t seen in advance.
  • In came another hungry little mouth to feed, 3 pigeons, the phone ringing endlessly and a morning trip for Tracey and Gill to a stuck deer which was unharmed and safely released, all in the space of just one day.
  • Our first lot of 13 ducklings left for the next stage of their journey-they joined a mother and her brood of 14. That’s going to be one busy mumma rounding up 27 ducklings! Our little gosling duo also went the same day and as always we owe our biggest thanks to the wonderful Stella.
  • Last but not least this week, after no parents were seen coming or going from the nesting box we were called to take a peak and soon came to the conclusion they got more than they bargained for in the nest-9 groggy little peepers!
