Missing my babies :(

So I'm not going to say I miss the poop...or the 6am mornings...or the demanding physical labor...but man do I miss those animals. At the moment I feel really antsy because I'm used to being on the move 12 hours a day...but I also have slept from 12 midnight to 12 noon for the past 3 days. I am the sleeping MASTER. I know that sounds a little excessive but it was amazing so I refused to feel ashamed. I think I will keep up this blog because it has been nice to look back at the stuff I have been doing and because at UVM I'm going to be just as (if not more) unreachable to most of my friends and family. Anyway, I found a bunch of OLD OLD Wildlife in Crisis pictures up in the apartment before I left and I downloaded them onto my computer (with Dara's permission). I though I would share some of the cool ones of animals I didn't see and pictures of the clinic from way back when:

Old School WIC:

Baby bluebirds = ridiculousness
The juvenile bald eagle raised and released from WIC:
Why if you throw shit on the ground and leave it there you are seriously not my friend:
Adorableness

I am actually planning on going back to WIC for a visit in early June so stay posted for adorable baby pictures and an update on Charlie and Henry! Also I will be in Maine and camping in the next few weeks and will attempt to remember my camera. Later!

Henry

Got

WHEELS!!!!He LOVES them and he was way less freaked out than I thought when we put him in. He seemed so much more comfortable than he is in the tub :) It was an awesome way to end my internship.

Aaaaand also here is a sleepy owl:

LAST POST AT WIC!!

Hey everyone! Thursday is my last day here so this will be a somewhat long post to catch you up on my life and post adorable pictures :) Sooo first order of business:

1. THE TURKEYS ARE GONE! Let me back up. We got a call a little over a week ago from a woman being harassed by a turkey in her yard. Dara saw the number and realized it was someone right down the road from us...sure enough...it was one of our turkeys. They apparently have been branching out in their harassment practices, only now it is landing them in trouble. Sooo, in order to keep them off animal contols radar and from becoming turkey dinners, they have both been sent to a farm. No, not the "farm" where old dogs go, an actual farm. Anyway, farewell turkeys! I will miss your 5 am tap on my skylight....wait no I won't...Enjoy the farm!


2. MORE BABIES. At our highest count there were 25 bunnies...omg. Currently we also have 2 baby raccoons (fuzzball 1 and 2!), a baby possum who looks like an alien, and 3 baby squirrels...OMG PICTURES:


3. About how Charlie 3 weeks ago:


Became Charlie now!I LOVE THIS ANIMAL SO MUCH! Anyway here is another quick video of him

Aaaaand last order of business

4. I am going to be working this summer at a nature camp but hanging out in Maine a lot so I will attempt to take more naturey pictures and also I plan to visit the clinic a few times....should I continue to update this blog?

Anyway, for those of you who I will see soon; See you soon!

THE END
