Charis will be on to explain a bit more.
I'm just posting the photos because the Host an image feature isn't working for her at the moment.

These are beautiful birds

Thank you, Cindy.

What I can tell you about these birds is that they are all very friendly, easy to handle, eat well and are in good condition. I do not know the circlumstances by which the came to Wildcare and hope that I can get some more information.
If you can take one of these birds, or know of someone that can offer one or all of them a good home, please contact me.

I asked about shipping and for more information on each bird.


I’m not sure what you mean by “shipping”, we would hope for a drive-able placement, that our volunteers might help to drive halfway, etc…. I’d be really concerned about packing them up in any other way. I think it would be terrifying for them… and they have already been through so much.

The banded one was rescued from Dennis after repeatedly trying to get into someone’s slider around the fourth of July....



The Rock dove was found floating in the back of a waterlogged boat off of Provincetown on October 15^th.

The other non-banded white one was found stuck in marsh grass behind a beach in Eastham at high tide on August 21^st.

Not that it makes any difference really, but both white birds look like they have a band.
The first looks to be sporting a turquoise band, and the second one a red band.

All three have definitely had quite an experience.

I will be thinking positive thoughts that they all find wonderful homes.

You're right about the bands Cindy I too hope they can find homes since it seems the rescue doesn't want to ship.

Bumping up.
I had an email from Wildcare yesterday to let me know the birds must be placed because they are out of room.

Makes it really hard to find them a home when they don't want to ship.

I've re-posted about them on Twitter, Facebook, their local Craigslist, PT, birdscentral.net, and will try to get them onto Petfinder.

Thank you...you are amazing.

I emailed them the name of a rehabber in Rhode Island that may have some connections too and as the Crow flys, Rhode Island isn't that far at all.

Thanks, Jen.

I've gotten 2 inquiries about these birds from the craigslist ad. I've referred them to Wildcare.

That's great.

too

Appreciate the update, Jen.
I sure hope things work out.

Any updates on these three birds?

Not that I know of.
