The big day will shortly be here, and I am busy dashing around myself to ensure all the rescues I work with have all bases covered to see them through the next few days when feed stores are closed, and volunteers spending time with their families - but the birds still need their carers too!
I would like to thank you all again for your kind support this year - it is only through such generosity that we can continue to help the thousands of birds we do on an annual basis...both directly via the Helpline, and through the other rescues we support both physically and financially.
