Several years ago when I was just beginning this journey that has introduced me to so many different wild creatures, I found it necessary to have a cage constructed that would be big enough to house six crows that I was working with. It was never meant to be a permanent structure; it was to be dismantled once the crows were released. However, just like in the movie "Field of Dreams", If you build it they will come. Since its construction it has rarely been empty. This cage has been "home" to many of the birds and animals you see pictured on the website.
Over the years, wind, rain, snow and the hot sun have taken a toll on the cage. It is now necessary to rebuild it. Since it seems to be a much needed structure, the plan is to rebuild it to be a much more sturdy enclosure, offering better protection from the elements. This is going to be a somewhat costly undertaking for our small program, more costly than what our donation fund can support. Any monetary donations received up to this point have been used to feed the wild birds and animals that come to us. This year we are starting a special fund to help us construct our much needed new enclosure. If you would like to make a donation to this special fund, please contact us at Canyon Lake Veterinary Hospital.
