Hello! This is @cyanocoracinae's bird rescue blog, where I will post about my own personal birds as well as my rescue and rehab cases.

I do assist with some native species. Though I likely won't post much about them, I may mention them occasionally - wild native birds are not pets, please remember that I am trained in rehabilitation and work alongside professionals!

For more information on a specific species, see:

-> Starlings

-> Pigeons

-> Doves

Shrimp checking out the box Prince was inspecting. These two have been mates for three years now, and while they always end up picking the same box for their nest, he has to make sure he is selecting nothing but the best for Shrimpy.

If you turn the volume up you can hear him go "Hiiii, whatcha doin?" when she lands on the box lol.

Manco is my oldest male, likely around 7, and has a pretty extensive vocal repertoire. In this video alone, you can hear a killdeer, Canadian goose, gulls, and part of his mallard quack lol. He can also mimic red-shouldered hawks, robins, crows, blue jays, and grackles. A very talented boy! 🧡

Gravy's headed home this weekend! Good luck little guy! 🥹

I mentioned poor Daisy's beak in the last post, here is a closer pic of what the poor girl is dealing with. Was told the beak "looked much worse, but he trimmed it for us right before we arrived". Genuinely suspect he did it with scissors based on all of the gouges in the keratin.

We are kind of shocked she could even eat, given that it was apparently much worse. We are hoping to get the poor little thing fixed up over the next few days, but wanted to let her settle and make sure there weren't any more immediate concerns. Poor lady.

This sweet girl joined our indoor flock over the past weekend, she is a surrender from a hoarding/neglect case. She is a bit nervous but incredibly curious. Needs a little help as far as her beak and feather condition but I think she will do great :)

New contestant for the weirdest couple at the rescue just dropped. He really does have a thing for women 3x his size, but unfortunately for him she could not care less 💔

Swissy would like me to know that her male-result DNA test was, in fact, wrong, and she has two eggs to prove it.

Lake would like me to know that he helped.

Gravy's all grown up 🥹

He sleeps here every night 🥹

Going to be really inactive indefinitely, sorry all. There's a little left in the queue but after that it'll be quiet from me. Having some delayed surgical complications from my hip reconstruction back in August and have had my walking + weight-bearing privileges revoked indefinitely while we wait for x-rays and my surgeon to make decisions on next steps. Currently scrambling to find help around the rescue and things are going to be a mess for a while. Hope to be back soon ♥️
