Baby Herring Gull

Baby Herring Gull Needs Foster Family

Posted on
This Herring Gull needs a foster gull family

We are looking for herring gulls (the big local gulls) nesting on a local (Duluth, MN), accessible roof. Do you know of any? Call us!

Remember our little gull? He went to WRC to be with another gull chick, but it turns out that they are different species, so that won’t work.

In the meantime, all our calling around to seabird rehabbers on the coasts finally bore fruit–one confirmed that we CAN foster out gull chicks (we didn’t want to try this without confirming with someone who does a lot of gull rehab, or we could end up with a dead chick).

So, we’re looking for a foster herring gull family for this little guy. Can you help? Call us at 218-491-3604. Please “share”, and thanks!

They are specifically designed for small mouths […]

Baby Great Horned Owl

Posted on

  We are going to attempt to re-unite “Hooty” with his parents later today. He’s doing well, but really needs his mom and dad so he can learn from the best how to be an owl. Here’s a video of him eating a chunk of meat (we mostly feed bits of whole rodent–skin, bone, and […]

Loon Release

Posted on

  This loon was found grounded on the side of Becks Road. She likely crash-landed due either to wind, or because she thought that the wet asphalt was a river. Loons and grebes have legs placed far back on their bodies, which is great for diving and swimming underwater to chase fish, but hopeless for […]
