Skywatch Bird Rescue

As someone who does rescue for living and runs a rescue I cannot express enough the importance of volunteers willing to roll up their sleeves, and get their feet wet and jump in to help an animal. Today was another example of how rescue work's impactfulness and success depends directly on its manpower, especially when rescuing birds.

This Scaup is a diving duck. She was shot through the wing, stranded and marooned at a very small pond surrounded by hunting preserve. The duck has been there for days and days and what made her more difficult to catch than the usual waterfowl (like a Mallard/Goose for example) is their diving ability and his quick agility below water, making our usual capture techniques unsuccessful.

Because of the type of Duck she is, It took a team of no less than 14 people, creative engineering and out of the box thinking, swimming in ice cold water, persevering for 4 hours before we finally had the dock in hand. The rescue of this duck would never have been possible if it wasn't for manpower, and people with big hearts willing to step up to the plate and work together to get the animal rescued.

If ywant to work join our 1st responder team, that go out on captures to get animals secured so they can come to the clinic for help, please contact us. We’re looking for lots of locals with big hearts that are not afraid to roll up their sleeves and get their feet wet, and have an adventure while helping an animal. If you want to be on our alert system to know when those captures are happening, PM us. Capture class provided. ...
