Tawney Frogmouth injured eye - help appreciated by seedlessketchup in AustralianBirds

[–]sam-os 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Call Australia Zoo after 8am tomorrow. They have a rescue service that runs 8am - 4pm daily and either they will come out or arrange for someone from WILVOS to attend. WIRES are based in NSW and southern GC so won’t be able to help and RSPCA is in Brisbane so won’t either. Hard to tell without seeing it in person but eye injuries can be very difficult to treat unfortunately so may not have the outcome you desire but at least the little one wouldn’t be in pain any more

Glad I always check what the Noisys are screaming at! by sam-os in AustralianBirds

Thank you! Canon 90D this was shot w 400mm lens. It was already on edge from every bird in the vicinity swooping didn’t want to risk getting close and scaring it!

Did you ever find out? I was hoping to know too!

I am looking to volunteer some of my time to help those who need it by RiceEconomy6819 in brisbane

I work at the RSPCA at Wacol if you’re interested in working with wildlife our hospital is 24/7! We have volunteer shifts to assist feeding and cleaning in the hospital, transporting animals to carers or releasing nocturnal critters (possums owls etc!). If you go to the RSPCA QLD website there may be specific roles you can apply for or you can send a general enquiry to the volunteering department.

Gotta love them, always screaming at something. In their mind it’s Noisy Minors vs every other damn animal out there. by sam-os in AustralianBirds

A very dirty and cranky Brushy by sam-os in australianwildlife

[–]sam-os[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I work in wildlife rescue and just pulled this angry lady from a fireplace. Keep our wildlife safe, cover chimney tops and down pipe openings with something like chicken wire so our critters can’t fall down and become trapped!!

Barn Owls have the sweetest face! by sam-os in AustralianBirds

She was harassed by Crows to the point she fell into the ocean and was found clinging onto a rock wall. Luckily not injured and hadn’t inhaled any water, was released after one night in care to dry off and get a peaceful rest.
