Hope for the new moon. Nothing has to be crazy and extravagant. Simple landscape maintenance that only focuses on removing the one invasive plant instead of clearing even a small patch down to dead dirt is just more practical. Land clearing hurts a lot of different non-target species and invites more problems. Selective weeding is more cost-effective and has way more visual and economic benefit. I can't believe they called the cops on me. I guess I'll take it as a compliment.

Now is the perfect time to start volunteering for a center near you. It's slow season. We all need help getting aviaries ready and new volunteers trained for baby season. Check out the map of rescue centers to find a place near you. This footage was taken from a rescue effort with where all the raptors we get in go for long term care. nteer

Yay trees. How cool would it be if they counted the nests in them as well. Big trees, bit girds, big habitat!

I get to release this super handsome Harlan's Red Tail today. Follow up video soon. Thankfull to all the people that helps advocate make these things happen. The person that called in the rescue, the volunteers that help with rescue transport, daily care volunteers, veterinarians, construction workers, and everyone that cares to get involved. Most of all Wild At Heart Raptor rescue for creating the space for all of it to come together. nteer

So many good things happen when helping conserve species. Meet community members that care, help really cool animals, learn more than you'll ever need to know about owls and still crave more knowledge :)

As development pushes these charismatic owls from their underground nesting sites, a solar project aims to show that habitat and renewable energy can coexist.

Can you identify what's wrong with this picture?

Would anyone know what to do if they saw this?

Please report unguarded poles. This eagle is not injured but he is at risk of getting Electricuted. Plastic covers can be placed on top of the wires to protect all wildlife.

With a large eagle wingspan even with protection this beauty is still at risk. However, with no protection..... Eeeeeeek!

Please report problem or at risk lines to help the birds, community, and power utilities. There are different educational examples on our page as well.

This is how you protect the wildlife in your own backyard.

It's bittersweet to have hawks follow me around. On one hand I was handing out flyers to try and find the person who shot her babies to kill them. On the other hand I see how knowledgeable they are as they try to follow me around wondering why I took their babies away. There are reporting tools on our website for people hurting wildlife and who to contact. Thanks for helping me care about this family and give them a voice.

Wildlife rescue takes community effort. It takes developers and homeowners to plant native landscapes that support our wildlife. Neighborhood advocates to report concerns, and rescue centers to take injured wildlife to for veterinarian and long term care. All these efforts are from community members and volunteers. A big Thank You to Jodi Newell from the Casa Grande Dispatch for helping share this story in hopes to catch who did this and help inspire more community conservation efforts. Shooting hawks is a state and federal offense. Links to report anonymously or get more involved are listed in our bio. Thank you!

CASA GRANDE — After two hawks were discovered with pellet gun wounds in Casa Grande, a local animal protection advocate is asking the public to respect the role birds of
