Great article on the history of bird rescuing! And hello from a fellow bird collision monitor and rescuer—I’m in Chicago and also have a weekly shift during migration. I hadn’t seen that woodcock map from NYC before so thanks for sharing that!
Thank you for reading! And for all the good work you're doing in Chicago. This was my first time finding (and holding!) a woodcock, which was an incredibly memorable experience. I've only seen them in the wild two or three times before!
Terrific, like all of your posts! I love the history and the way you reflect on what wildlife rehab tells us about our relationship with other animals.
Nice. I had a good friend in the Bay Area with large enclosures in her back yard where owls, hawks, falcons, etc., could rehab until they were ready to be released. Got to accompany her on a release now and then.

I once stayed at a bnb in Oracle Az.. owls visited at night. The owner was a bird repairer and mostly did hawks and eagles. remarkable

A beautiful article. Your last paragraph, in particular, captures my sentiments. Arya the Cockatiel and I thank you.
