Well hello hoomans! 🐦‍⬛ It’s fledgling crow season 🙌
Please don’t mistaken this awkward stage as us being injured and kidnap us🙏
We might look like our parents and are often as big as they are too- but there are a few key differences that will help you identify us 🔍
✅biggest give away- our eyes are blue ( or greyish)
✅the corners of our mouth (gape) is still pinkish red
✅we often open our beaks and make a funny sound that is different than a typical adult ‘caw’
✅ our feathers are a duller matte black instead of the shiny purplish black of an adults feathers
✅ our tail feathers are often shorter than the adults
✅we are found sitting in odd places and often don’t seem afraid of humans - we may even open our beaks and beg for food ( but please don’t feed us!)
Mom and the family are rarely far away and keep an eye on us .
How to help us :
💥 Don’t feed us - mom the family take care of that.
💥Keep cats and dogs away from us - we can’t fly yet and they can hurt us!
💥if we are in a dangerous area like on a road or middle of a trail - just gently move us to the safety of the grass nearby
💥please don’t handle us as the oils from your hands can affect our feathers
💥 we are clumsy sometimes and may appear injured but we are just learning to fly and are awkward sometimes
💥IF we ARE injured ( a dropped wing, open wound, lethargic or unwell- or a cat or dog has had hold of us!) please call The Rock Wildlife Rescue 709-727-3101 and leave a message or text *
We eat a lot!!! So If you would like to help the rescue care for us until we are ready to be released - there are lots of ways to help !

Crows ♥️🐦‍⬛Oh how we love them !
We have a few here at the rescue with us now
Regrowing damaged feathers and recovering from injuries.
Incredibly smart, resourceful and inquisitive birds.

Some crows, need to overwinter with us to properly molt.
They have Big appetites and need proper nutrition to regrow healthy feathers.

Caring for these incredible quirky birds for months on end means:
• A steady supply of meat, whole prey, fish, vegetables, berries and supplements to help them grow strong
• Cleaning and maintaining enclosures to keep them healthy.
• Building proper habitats and with perches & enrichment to keep them challenged and engaged.

The calls don’t stop, and neither does the need.
Every day, more injured and orphaned wildlife come through our doors, and every single animal requires time, resources, and dedicated care.

If you’ve been considering supporting our work, now is the time. Your donation helps ensure we can continue saying “yes” when an animal is in trouble and has nowhere else to go.
Thank you for helping us be their lifeline. ♥️
