NATIVE WILDLIFE RESCUE ROUNDUP: 9th OCTOBER 2015
1. (Top left) Brownie is a shrike who was found stranded in a built-up environment. Our guess is that Brownie flew into a glass panel and went into a state of shock, stranding himself. Luckily, he didn’t sustain any injuries and was released immediately. We thank the caller to our Wildlife Rescue Hotline for keeping an eye on and getting help for the bird.

UNIQLO WAS SIGHTED – 2 WEEKS AFTER HIS RELEASE!
Two weeks ago, we shared a video showing the release of Mia, Velda and Uniqlo. You’ve also heard about how we tried to integrate little Uniqlo to 3 different families. We remained uncertain if he would make it through his release back to the wild, as he is very young.
But! We finally spotted him with his new family in Upper Peirce! He was seen moving and adapting well. It was wonderful to see him socialising with his new family. He even looke...
