Emilio Garza Briana Skye I wanna throw up in your mouths
Nature is so majestic.
Sounds about right
We are continuing to get in oiled seabirds from our beaches. These birds would die if not rescued. The oil is naturally occurring seepage from the ocean floor which is stirred to the surface during storms. The Western Grebes pictured here have been stabilized and washed and are now spending time in one of our outdoor pools. You can see the birds preening their feathers which is how they regain their waterproofing so essential to survival on the open ocean. Only after they can remain warm and dry for a period of time in the pools will they be considered for release. Thanks to everyone who has donated to us so far! Your donations help to ensure these birds have a second chance and can be released back to the wild.

These might be some of the grebes I helped wash ❤️
Several in our so nj lagoons this jan n feb, fun to watch them.
I love watching grebes preen.
I noticed at least a dozen grebes grouped all together last week near the sea otters at the South T-Pier, usually only see 1 or 2 at a time. I took photos and looked closely 3X the size, couldn't see any oil, but maybe it would be hard to detect in photographs. Any suggestions on what we should look for? Thank you for all you do!
This unusual patient, a Long-tailed Duck, was brought to our clinic from Oceano. Her legs were not functioning properly and she has some issues with poor feather condition. Long-tailed Ducks breed high in the arctic and come south to spend the winter along our coast. They are diving sea ducks and are not seen here in large numbers. The name comes from the very long, thin, upright tail feathers of the male that can extend as much as a foot beyond his body. About the size of a crow, Long-tailed Ducks are known for their odd, incessant, chicken-like calls. This little female has on pink booties to protect her feet from injury while she is recovering.

That is interesting . Hope the little critter recovers!
Cool, I've never see one of these. Hope she's OK and you can find other LTDUs when she's ready for release.
Bless you little one!
Very interesting!
Cutie!
