Take a look at these inquisitive Puerto Rican Screech-Owls captured by Alfredo Irizarry in Puerto Rico.

These Puerto Rican Screech-Owls are found in Puerto Rico, Isla de Vieques, Isla de Culebra, and adjacent Virgin Islands. They are common in Puerto Rico but are critically endangered on the Virgin Islands.

They are nocturnal birds, hiding in dense foliage, thickets or caves during the day, and they make calls in the early morning and evening.

What a special capture for the birds from your continent theme.

Take a look at this beautiful Long-tailed Broadbill that has been entered into this week's "continent" theme.

It was captured by Satish Dubey in Uttarakhand, India.

The Long-tailed Broadbill is a species of bird that is found in the Himalayas, extending east through Northeastern India to Southeast Asia. It is a forest bird that lives on insects. It is very sociable and normally travels in large, noisy parties except during the mating season.

See you on the platform!

It’s the time of year where we start to get frequent calls for young swans which have been dispersed from their parents territory. It’s at this stage where they are left to fend for themselves and find a new location.

This cygnet found himself rather comfortable on top of a car. Thankfully, there were no injuries and the swan was located to a more sensible location! 🦢

Please keep pets safe and indoors on bonfire night

02/11/2022

With Guy Fawkes Night fast approaching, please remember to check your bonfires for hedgehogs who may be sleeping.

Our spiky friends are rapidly on the decline and you can help to prevent unnecessary loss. Follow this wildlife friendly advice from British Hedgehog Preservation Society:
• Don’t build your bonfire until the same day that you will light it. The longer it’s left, the more likely that a hedgehog will find its way into your bonfire.
• If you need to build your bonfire in advance, make sure you place chicken wire one metre high all the way around the bottom. This should be placed at an outward angle to make it more difficult for hedgehogs to climb.
• If you have stored materials for your bonfire outdoors, before building it move them to a different patch of ground before you start.
• Always place the bonfire on open ground but never on a pile of leaves as a hedgehog may be hiding underneath.
• Always check the entire bonfire for hedgehogs before lighting it. Remember that they tend to hide in the centre and bottom two feet in particular.
• When checking, lift parts of the bonfire section by section using a pole or broom. Do not use a fork, spade or rake as this may injure a hedgehog.
• Use a torch to look inside the bonfire and listen for a hissing sound, as this is the noise that hedgehogs make when they are disturbed or distressed.
• Always light your bonfire from one corner, rather than in the centre, in order to give hedgehogs a chance to escape if they need to.

Remember, remember the Fifth of November but don’t forget about our wildlife! 🦔🔥

African Grey mixed professional parrot seed now available

Breeding season work is slowly wrapping up with most of the chicks now independent and only a few mums still left on supplementary food.
A few of the team powered around Hauturu-O-Toi completing transmitter changes and health checks there.
Out on Te Kākahu-o-Tamatea work continues to try and catch the elusive stoat. However we're very relieved that DNA testing of scats found by a detection dog shows that it's just a single male on the island.
In the office we've had a huge response to our adoptions programme reopening. There's a week left to get international orders placed for the best chance of them arriving for Christmas!

Dog of the month at Birmingham dogs home

Hello November!

What a face to start off the month! This gorgeous girl is a 10 month old Malinois looking for an active home.

This gorgeous girl came into our care very under socialised so does take time to come around to new people. Once she does, she will certainly show you her playful and cuddly side.

Maple will need a home who are willing to help her overcome her fears and become the puppy she is, and taking in the world around her, having fun and learning lots.

A very clever girl who has so much to give.

Please view her full profile here 👉https://birminghamdogshome.org.uk/dogs/maple-125424/
