🌊 On our last team-building adventure at Oleta Park, we collected far too many discarded fishing lines. 🎣 These seemingly harmless tangles pose serious dangers to pelicans and other birds. Attracted by bait, they often get hooked or entangled—injuring their wings, pouch, or worse, swallowing the hook. 💔 ⚠️ Always dispose of fishing lines responsibly. Wildlife depends on it. And while we’re out here cleaning up and caring for our feathered friends, you can make an impact too! 🌟 It’s Early Giving for Give Miami Day—your support fuels our rescue, rehab, and conservation efforts. 🩺🐦 💙 Donate today through the link in our bio and help us protect Miami’s incredible wildlife! ✨

This Chuck-will’s-widow arrived yesterday “stargazing”, as seen in the first slide. No, he’s not trying to admire the nighttime Miami sky; this unusual positioning is caused by muscle contractions. In addition, both eyes showed inflammation within the globe & corneal ulcers. These are all common side effects of head trauma, likely from colliding with a building. We got right to work doing red laser therapy, eye medications, oxygen therapy and getting this guy some calories. These birds, members of the nightjar family, eat in flight, dining on whatever insects they catch. They have long bristles on each side to guide food into their large, gaping mouths. When in human care, they have to be hand fed as seen in the 2nd slide. ➡️➡️swipe to the end to see the incredible ❗️24 hour❗️ improvement this patient has made! Watching these animals make leaps and bounds every day in their healing is such a reward, and we can’t wait for this one to be flying free soon.
