3rd July: Chick 39 update...
We thought this year's chick ringed with number 39 was found uninjured but not able to fly very well, unfortunately this was not the case.
When examined at the rehabilitation centre X-rays showed a fractured clavicle & ribs. He is recovering but it will take a while before he is able to fly. He will now stay at the rehabilitation centre until fully recovered.
One positive thing that comes out of this is how precious these chicks are and how everything possible is done to ensure their wellbeing...how many other birds found in the street would be x-rayed!
We never seem to do well with a chick with a ring number that is a multiple of 13, perhaps we should throw away rings 52 and 65!
Il pulcino con il numero 39 trovato il 21.6 in una strada sotto Sussex Heights non era in grado di volare molto bene ma purtroppo quando è stato esaminato presso il centro di riabilitazione, i raggi X hanno mostrato una clavicola fratturata & costole. Egli è in fase di recupero, ma ci vorrà un po' di tempo prima che egli sia in grado di volare. Ora rimarrà presso il centro di riabilitazione, fino a quando non sarà pienamente recuperato.
