Wanted: licensed wildlife rehabber or avian vet to give a workshop in New York City.

The New York Bird Club receives many calls from people who have found injured or abandoned wildlife, and would like to offer a "Rehab For The Rest of Us" basics workshop taught by a licensed bird rehabber or avian vet.

The workshop would involve a kind of Urban and Wildbird Triage training to help stablize a distressed bird until we could get him/er to a licensed rehabber the following day.

Topics could include:

What, when and how to feed

Hydration: When and how

When to keep warm and how

Hygiene and quarantine

Handy supplies

When to intervene

The workshop(s) will be held in Manhattan at a time convenient to the rehabber or vet, and they may request donations at the event.

If you'd like to present this workshop, e-mail Anna Dove of New York Bird Club at bestbirdclub@yahoo.com.
