COVID-19 and Difficult Times
We understand that times are hard right now, and a lot of people have nothing to give. However, if you do have the resources, please donate to our cause. The situation we're facing this year is unprecedented and was certainly unpredictable. If you can reach into your heart, and donate, we will be eternally grateful.
Peregrine Falcons, by Wes Laraway
The Peregrine is a very common medium sized falcon that is found worldwide on every continent except for Antarctica. [...] Peregrine Falcons have been prized by falconers for over 3,000 years, and Peregrine Falcons also get the honor of being the "fastest animal on earth." Normal flying speed is between 25 to 35 MPH but they have been clocked doing over 220 MPH when they go into a fast dive (or stoop) while hunting.
Gorgeous Stock Trailer Auction
A generous donor has gifted NYWRC with this beautiful 16-foot 2017 stock trailer. We will be auctioning it to the highest bidder!
It’s truly a beautiful trailer, and will be available for viewing at our facility. We will be accepting bids via Facebook Private Message to Wes, and already have one private bid of $1,000. Follow this post, where we will be posting the high bid updates. Do note that due to the great quality of this trailer, there will be a reserve on the item. Our posted comments will let you know when that reserve has been met.
Rescue Never Ends
Although "baby season" is mostly over (though it seems like the animals are having babies very late in the season this year), rescue never ends. Just as an example, see this post and photos from yesterday.
