🚨 Please NEVER put sticky traps on trees to catch lanternflies! This practice is DEADLY to birds, bats, squirrels and loads of native insects, while being useless against the spread of lanternflies. This downy woodpecker was lucky only to have lost his tail.  📷: Phyllis Tseng

The woodcocks are *still* in town, and they are still arriving at the clinic. We currently have FIVE in care, and it's <checks calendar> Jan. 18! We always receive a few during winter, but this is a bit much. The earthworm market is booming! 📷: @tristanahigg

Bon voyage to 28 more migrators who recovered from window collisions! Among these are sparrows, thrushes, warblers and Ten Grand, a wren who was our 10,000th patient of 2023. Nothing makes us happier than to see these small powerhouses return to the wild. 📷: @tristanahigg

These are actual creatures who share this planet with us! They are fledgling yellow-crowned night-herons, and we'll give you a moment to admire their exuberant mops and very big feet (and also the amazing retractable neck) before we tell you a sad story. 📷: Rachel Frank
