Just a reminder that next week Saturday the 6th we are holding our annual festive open house. This is a fun event where we get to take some time and visit with everyone, show off our wonderful wildlife building and property and answer your questions in person.

We will have people from Bird Friendly Hamilton Burlington, Coyote Watch Canada and Haldimand Stewardship Council joining. There will be a fun silent auction and draw prices.

We have had some question about why we hold it this time of year (risk of snow storm). The reason is that we have less wildlife in care now than we do during the summer months. It is easier for us to move the animals away from the hustle and bustle of the open house this time.

This bring me to the second question I have been asked several times...no, there will be no wildlife visible or available for visiting during the open house. This is a condition of our authorization, but also the wildlife really don't enjoy people and we do what is in their best interest.

We look forward to seeing everyone and will do our very best to make it a fund event.

Legs up the wall (with slight hip elevation) is a simple yet powerful pose that balances both body and mind. 🌿 It supports lymphatic drainage, reduces swelling, and boosts circulation to the face and scalp. By activating the parasympathetic nervous system, it lowers stress, calms the mind, and promotes relaxation. This gentle inversion also eases tension in the lower back and hips, aids digestion, and improves sleep — a low-effort, deeply nourishing reset for the whole body. 💫
