Fixing our Nest
The beginning of the New Year means it's almost baby bird season again. They have been fortunate the past few months to have the time to "get their ducks in a row". If you have never been to Fallen Feathers before, the whole organization is operated out of a home. It is generous and loving and we birds appreciate it greatly.
Volunteers have been helpful with removing old broken equipment, building new aviaries and resealing existing aviaries.
While one of the goals of Fallen Feathers is to have a free standing facility in the northwest valley, there is still room to grow until that happens. Help is needed establishing watering throughout the aviaries and additional landscaping would be nice so that we birds have plenty of shade in any new aviaries.
A very generous donation of various bird items and statues was granted in late November. Everyone has been decorating the grounds celebrating the very creatures they are trying to help.

Today, another much needed donation arrived. A new trailer for hauling perches, displays and documents for the various public events that Fallen Feathers attends.
The holidays were good to Fallen Feathers, but they work hard and it is well deserved. They help over a thousand birds a year solely on donations and volunteers and it still isn't enough to cover the need.
For now the gifts and the break are being enjoyed. Next month the babies will start coming in and everyone will be very busy for at least 6 months. As for me, time to find a place to cozy down and keep warm.
Lovey and Thurston,
the neighborhood mourning doves
