Why We Rehabiltate Brown Pelicans

[…]of pelicans and killed many more.   Fish oil and petroleum are similar in how they compromise a bird’s waterproofing, leading to hypothermia and emaciation. Unless rescued these birds die. Fish oil however does not cause internal damage. The health problems petroleum spill victims suffer that cause disruption in their reproductive cycles are due to ingesting hydrocarbons, not the rehabilitation process. The Pelicans we are treating need to be washed and fed. Very little else is wrong with them. We have no reason to believe that this calamity will have a deleterious impact on their future breeding success. To suggest otherwise is […]

The Case of the Houda Point Screech-owl …

[…]is our first photo of him after being moved to an outdoors aviary. Motor vehicles are the most common cause of injury for all the owls that we see. Last year at Humboldt Wildlife Care Center we treated 50 owls of various species. We know that 26 of these owls had been struck by a vehicle. 24 of the owls we treated were Western Screech-owls. Of these 24, 14 had been hit by a car. Due to the typical severity of injuries car strikes cause, only 5 survived to be released. While an owl might fly in front of your […]

Friday the 13th a ‘lucky’ day for this Peregrine Falcon

Usually when a call comes in to Humboldt Wildlife Care Center, our clinic in Bayside, about a bird of prey who’s been struck by a vehicle, it doesn’t end well. So when the kind man who stopped to scoop up a Peregrine Falcon from Myrtle Avenue last Friday (the 13th) pulled up to our door, wildlife rehabilitator Lucinda Adamson was hoping for the best, but prepared for the worst. Lucinda greeted the rescuer and went out with him to his truck. Inside the covered bed, the falcon had gotten loose and was trying to fly. “The rescuer called on his […]

The Luckiest Hawk…

[…]admission exam. He greeted us at the door of his incubator, on his feet, alert, ready to face what comes. In short, he was back. Not a single bone was broken. There was no visible bruising – not a scratch. We did find a brood patch, a bare area on the belly of many birds during breeding season that allows the warm skin of the parent to come in direct contact with the eggs so they stay at the right temperature. It meant this hawk is an expecting father, if his chicks haven’t already hatched. No doubt he’d been hunting […]

Bird Ally X/HWCC inundated with Fish-oiled Brown Pelicans! Again!

[…]juveniles, over 40 impacted birds were seen. Obvious contaminations occurred while they were there coming from the drain from a fish cleaning table that discharges into the harbor. Many birds were observed to have Salmon or Rockfish carcasses lodged deep in their pouches, after being fed by sport fishers. We’ve also received reports of impacted birds on Gold Bluff beach, above Orick. This will be a difficult location to access without permission from the NPS, although we’ve been invited to go out there with a commercial smelt fisher who doesn’t want the fisheries to take the rap for these injured […]

Frustration and Politics Hurting Wildlife Rescue Effort

[…]IBRRC, also issued a statement regarding the care of oiled wildlife, citing many of the same studies as Ziccardi. Holcomb noted especially the lack of involvement biologists such as Gaus have with the oiled wildlife care research community: IBRRC and Tri-State Bird Rescue host a bi-annual conference on the Effects of Oil on Wildlife, and, as such, are well versed in the latest science. The “experts” that I am referring to rarely, if ever, attend this global forum for oiled wildlife professionals, nor do they attempt to learn about advancements and successes in oiled wildlife rehabilitation.      While the […]

Influx of Injured Western Grebes

[…]several miles north at South Jetty, was brought to our clinic. This bird, with similar wounds, died on the way. And so began a five day run in which 11 of these elegant seabirds with deep puncture wounds and occasionally with a crushed wing or leg, came to our small wildlife hospital on the Redwood coast. Many of the birds came from Crescent City, a few were found between here and there – Manila, Clam Beach, Trinidad. As of this writing, only two have survived. Both are currently in care. This is somewhat unusual. Typically, when more than a few […]
