So distressing to know every bird that we see dead probably has a family maybe even chicks that will starve without their mother. Timberdoodles a.k.a. American Woodcocks are dying because they fly low and they can’t see well as their eyes are on the sides of their heads…when they get into the city they crash into buildings in huge numbers. I saw one fly over the west side highway and crash into a dumpster. Unfortunately, it was behind a locked fence and I couldn’t get to it nor could I find anyone to help me get in and try to help it if it wasn’t already dead. Ugh!!!
Wildlife heroes, yay and thank goodness for the bird people taking time to take care of these birds! 🙏
