Remember this girl? Look how well she is doing. She was hit by a car and sustained a large cut on chest and some other scrapes and bruises. Lucky for her she had no broken bones and no damage to her eyes. Thanks for those who donated towards her care. We couldn't help birds like her without donor support. Soon she will back out in the wild!
Huge Thanks to Wrightsville Beach Brewery!![]()

"Wrightsville Beach Brewery donates 11% of proceeds from their revolving “Beer of the Month” to a different non-profit partner each month. 11% of proceeds from all our beers will go to supporting our 11 non-profit partners. Why 11%? We were raised to believe that one should always give 10% of their income to the causes they believe in. Making beer and giving back to the community have equal standing with WBB". ![]()

Thanks Wrightsville Beach Brewery, from all of the birds in need, here at the rescue.
Can u imagine the panoramic view they have! Woodcocks have eyes on the side of their head set so far back they can almost see a full surround panoramic view. Talk about great perfifiral vision. This of course is so they spot predators that might be behind approaching while the probe their beak down into to the soil to find food.![]()

Woodcocks have no predatory defences like strong beaks or sharp claws to defend themselves against a predator attack, so their survival method is to avoid predators at all costs by having this amazing set of eyes that can see them coming from all angles. They have incredible eyesight and nocturnal vision. ![]()

This Woodcock is receiving care from trauma most likely caused by colliding with a window or vehicle.
