Mahalo to all our Giving Tuesday donors, sharers and supporters! It was a busy day yesterday. The U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary brought over an ‘Ua‘u kani (Wedge-tailed Shearwater) and an endangered ‘Ua‘u (Hawaiian Petrel) from our Pūlama Lāna‘i satellite and took a Nēnē (Hawaiian Goose) over to O‘ahu for surgery. Our awesome Wheels for Wildlife volunteers picked them up! 🛫🛬 #wildliferehab #nene #uaukani #uau #hawaiiangoose #wedgetailedshearwater #hawaiianpetrel #uscoastguardauxiliary

In March we celebrated our 1,000 patients milestone, and now in just this year alone we’re approaching 800 patients and over 31 different species in care. Holy moly! Even with double the patients from last year, we’re still operating with the same budget. If you’d like to help, please consider making a donation for Giving Tuesday! Spreading the word helps too! www.hawaiiwildlifecenter.org/donate.html 💕💕💕 #wildliferehab #givingtuesday #hawaiiconservation #hawaiiwildlife #hawaiibirds

We spritz birds with water to help them keep their feathers in good condition. Most birds start bathing and preening right away. This ‘Io however, was not amused. Happy Monday! 🙈 #deathglare #Io #hawaiianhawk

Heads up! Sea Life Park is no longer a drop-off location for downed shearwaters. Here’s a list of current drop-off sites.

Here’s a video from our O‘ahu Seabird Aid Program Manager. After passing all their health exams, these downed youngsters are heading out to sea! 🙌🏻

Behind the scenes at the O‘ahu Seabird Aid Program: in addition to providing health assessments for downed birds, we are also collecting data to help inform future fallout seasons and management programs. Birds are banded when possible as well. Bringing birds to designated drop-off stations not only ensures the best care for downed seabirds but also contributes to these data collection efforts! (This map shows 2019 fallout locations and the federal bands are a sample from this 2020 season). Mahalo to all of our partners helping with this effort. 60 birds were dropped off yesterday alone! https://www.hawaiiwildlifecenter.org/oahu-seabird-aid-program.html

Mahalo to everyone who continue to look out for these downed ‘Ua‘u kani! The new moon weekend was crazy busy with downed birds, but they were able to get the response they needed thanks to everyone’s kōkua. Keep it up! #wedgetailedshearwater #oahuseabirdaid #ittakesavillage #falloutseason #notoveryet
