I just wanted to say thanks to all bird (and other wildlife) rehabbers, along with anyone who’s ever volunteered at, or contributed to, a rehab facility. Rehabbers do an incredible job at a vital and unfortunately necessary task. Thanks.

And thanks to Julie Zickefoose for posting a heart-warming account of raising birds. If you’d like to learn more about what rehabbers do, I highly recommend the book Flyaway: How A Wild Bird Rehabber Sought Adventure and Found Her Wings, by Suzie Gilbert.
