    Auckland's main DOC-permitted native bird hospital is in for a busy season

    Auckland's main DOC-permitted native bird hospital is in for a busy season


    Sudden hot weather after an influx of windy, stormy days means the Bird Care Aotearoa hospital is already at capacity.

    A penguin and shag chicks are the latest patients.

    Bird Care Fundraising Manager, Dr Rashi Parker, says they're seeing both natural and human-caused injuries.

    She says people need to pay attention to the unintentional harm they can do to wildlife and the environment.
