Chirp & Chatter: Fear Not for Fledglings!
http://lensc.blogspot.com/2011/06/fear-not-for-fledglings.html
Monday, June 20, 2011. Fear Not for Fledglings! Have you seen a baby bird on the ground, unable to fly, and wondered if it was injured? Fortunately, Lake Erie Nature and Science Center is here to answer your question! Throughout the month of June especially, the Center receives an abundance of calls asking whether or not young birds that appear to be “stuck” on the ground need human assistance. In most cases, the answer is no. Posted by Joanna Galysh, Community Relations Intern. Subscribe in a reader.

Sunday, August 26, 2012. Back to School For All. We recently finished the final week of summer camps and programs at Lake Erie Nature and Science Center, and that’s always a little bit sad for us. While we have little ones and preschoolers in class here throughout the school year, summer affords us unique opportunities to experience more time outdoors, just as we did when we were in grades K-12. 8221; (The man was fine, but slightly wet.). And just as summer is beginning to fade, kids are getting back on...

Friday, February 18, 2011. White Pelican Video Progress Report. Our pelican is now in the hands of the experts at World Bird Sanctuary in St. Louis. Amy drove the bird there over the weekend (starting out in Friday's blizzard) and was impressed with the wildlife hospital that will be overseeing the next phase of this big bird's rehab. Thanks to everyone who supported the care and transfer of this unique patient! Posted by Lake Erie Nature and Science Center. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Chances are you have probably heard the chattering of Chimney Swifts, a unique species of bird that nest only in chimneys. Lake Erie Nature and Science Center’s Wildlife Education and Rehabilitation staff receives many calls about these birds at this time of year as it is their primary nesting season. Chimney Swifts are also known for their distinctive nest construction. The...

Saturday, January 22, 2011. American White Pelican in Rehab. We’re caring for an unusual patient in Wildlife Education and Rehabilitation Program. An American White Pelican. Although a few of these birds wind up in our neck of the woods each year, it’s rarely seen in Ohio because the American White Pelican’s normal breeding range is the Northern Plains and Mountain West and it winters along the southern coasts. Some of the photos we have posted on our Facebook page. Tuesday, January 11, 2011. Secured a n...

Friday, December 17, 2010. Variety of Water Birds Seen In Rehab. This week’s intense wintry weather brought an influx of injured water birds into our Wildlife Education and Rehabilitation Program. It’s common for us to see quite a few of these birds each winter, but we don’t always encounter such variety of species at once. The grebes have legs that are set far back on their bodies, ideal for propelling them through the water and diving for dinner but not for walking. Monday, December 13, 2010. The Board...

Wednesday, May 25, 2011. Injured Baby Hawks Facing Long Rehab. Two baby hawks rescued from a tree that came crashing down in Monday night's storm are now in the care of Lake Erie Nature and Science Center. Troy and Marci Anderson, the Berea couple who rescued the nestlings from the fallen nest and tree, brought them to our Wildlife Education and Rehabilitation Program. Staff yesterday. After a visit to the vet, the birds are starting what looks to be a long-term rehab, recovering from leg fractures.
