The GSPCA has had an incredibly busy year in 2020 with baby birds of all shapes and sizes.
We are appealing for volunteers to make knitted nests for the baby birds in our care.
With our intensive care units bursting with young animals these nests really help keep young birds feel safe and keep them warm.
With Spring well underway the GSPCA are asking Islanders to please be mindful of the many fledglings popping up around the Bailiwick.
The GSPCA would like to remind that as a general rule, it is best to leave baby birds alone.
A baby bird has a greater chance of survival in the wild than it has being hand-reared by man as they learn to fend for themselves and how to forage for food by their parents.
Around 2 weeks after hatching young birds in your Bailiwick garden usually leave the nest, just before they learn how to fly.
