A wildlife rehabilitator friend, newly licensed, recently called to ask if he could feed a recovering Turkey Vulture anything besides defrosted rodents. Normally I feed vultures, as well as hawks and owls, defrosted mice and rats. My mammal-rehabber friends give me their unfortunates, as well. Did I have an answer for him.

Wildlife rehabilitators are a multi-tasking lot. Not only do we take care of zillions of injured and orphaned birds/mammals/reptiles/whatever, we also have to deal with and educate the public.

Lots of squirrels, chipmunks, deer, rabbits. but that's pretty much it for mammals. I think I heard an owl once last winter. I'm not out in the country either (despite the wildlife.) We do have a possum and a raccoon that live somewhere on the property. And I have found one small dead garden snake in the street.

And it had to start at 5:45 am, because if we wanted owls this was when we had to get them. It was a dark and foggy ride into Nags Head Woods, the only forest of any sort on the islands, and we paused every few hundred meters and listened for owls. Though our focus was birds, there’s plenty of other wildlife on the islands.
