On the evening of the 19th September a very poorly Barn Owl was rescued and taken into the care of the GSPCA.
Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said “On Tuesday the 19th September I was on night duty and one of the many animals to arrive that evening was a very poorly Barn Owl.”
“The finder of the bird named him Popeye and he was very thin and had an extremely poorly right eye.”
“He was found in the road near the Hougue du Pommier.”
“If Popeye hadn’t have been rescued he would surely wouldn’t have survived as he was also very disorientated.”
"As winter draws in our wildlife are faced with many challenges."
“Popeye after just two weeks of care and TLC at the GSPCA was fit and ready to go back to the wild o he was rung so if spotted we can know how he is doing and then returned to the area he was from on Tuesday which went really well.”
“If you see sick or injured wildlife please do give us a call on 257261 or check out our web page for advice https://www.gspca.org.gg/animals/wildlife-advice .”
“There are many ways to support our work from making a donation towards the care of the many animals at the GSPCA to donating or helping towards the new much needed Wildlife Hospital.”
