Hurricane Ian gave us a dress rehearsal! All 10 pelicans and 10 hawks and owls came into the house for the night along with a few random smaller birds. Volunteers took a few to their homes as well. No problems here but it was pretty alarming to see the ocean coming over the dunes AND up from the marsh!!! ... See MoreSee Less

Thank you for all you do! You are truly amazing to care for these animals the way you do.

So glad you all are ok. Thank you for saving these precious animals

So glad you are all safe! I will never forget what you endured during Florence. You are beyond devoted to making sure those in your care are protected and safe, no matter the circumstances. ❤

So glad you are all safe! Great job taking care of everyone!

You people are so amazing, thank you so much for taking care of the beautiful creatures!

Love the work you guys do. I was wondering how my little buddy was doing. I brought in a young male barred owl on 9/21

hopefully when you move into your new facility that will be less of a worry. thank you and the volunteers for what you do every day, not just during weather crises

Glad there were accommodations for all of them!

Thank you for your dedication for our wildlife.

We did the same. Good practice run! But I'll definitely take the no hurricane route!

Or at least post that it isn’t local.

It gave us all something to do. You should do it more often. 😉

Well at least we know what it is now. ❤️❤️

Mary Ellen & I were both in Ireland. We were comparing notes about birds we saw. This bird IS NOT at SB. It's a Irish robin in Ireland.

Take a pic with google camera

Lot of birds are going through different stages of molt A side view would help

I think you are correct about the European Robin A life bird you may see a lot of birders this week How did you it get to seabiscuit

Google says Robin.

This appears to be a European Robin. If locally seen, it should be reported to a local birding club so they can verify and post on a hot line.

Are there any more photos of this bird? Is it now at Sea Biscuit? Where was it found?

Immature eastern blue bird is my final guess. 🤣

We’ve been looking and looking. This is. European robin. 🤷‍♀️

Juvenile eastern towhee?

It’s a Robin, very common in the U.K.

Baby Robin??

Theresa Lewis

Larry Hale. Help us out here. Your good at identifying birds. 😊

Cute

I love google lens!

Peggy Marlin what does Larry think?

Maybe a molting eastern bluebird. 🤷‍♀️

Female bluebird?

I sent you guys an email regarding the pelican release yesterday 🙂 I was able to capture a video of them flying for the first time as well as them trying to mingle. After about an hour they had taken up with a large group of others ❤️❤️ it was a really amazing experience to witness!

Thank you so much for what y’all do at Sea Biscuit 👍👍

Thank you for helping them ❤️My favorite bird and I don't seem to see as many as last year at the waterfront.

That’ll teach them to be sassy to Mary Ellen😜

Thank you to all your volunteers who work tirelessly to keep all the flyers happy

Wow that can’t be easy!

poor babies 😪

Awesome jobs

I hope you didn't use Lifeboy.

Yikes!
