10,000 Birds

Key West Wildlife Center takes mostly birds, but will rescue mammals, marine mammals, and both land and sea turtles as well. They kept the hawk for a few days, as he was weak and dehydrated from migration, then released him as well. Last year, 4,000 young Peregrine Falcons swept through the Keys on their way north.

Speaking of pregnant snakes, do sea snakes lay their eggs ashore like sea turtles or do they keep them internally until the young are ready to hatch/ be born, like some sharks?

Turtles are the reptile everybody loves. Birders are always happy to see a turtle or tortoise, and there are times of the year when my social media feeds are sprinkled with photos of turtles beings removed from roads or crawling to land to lay eggs. ©2021 text by Jeffrey E. They just look so content and stable!
