Here is Brett, the baby magpie that brought a suburban street together.

I received the call that a baby magpie had been found in the gutter. Brett and Jess found the baby on the road in their street. They tried putting it back off the road but it kept finding itself back onto the road, it obviously couldn't fly, it was getting late, and someone's pet cat had its eye on it, so they put it in a clothes basket with a towel over it, took it up the road to their place (no.14), and called wildlife rescue.

I picked it up early the next morning. Jess showed me the very tall Eucalypt tree (outside no. 7) it must have come out of. I could see the nest very high up but couldn't see mum or dad. I took, newly named, Brett, home to hydrate and observe as I had no idea how long he had been on the ground.

After a day at my place, watered and fed, I decided to go back and look for Brett's mum and dad, knowing the very best place for a healthy baby is with its parents. I took a makeshift nest (a hanging basket) and some hope with me.

On arrival at Brett's street i went and spoke to a few neighbours hosing their lawns.
Turns out they were wondering where Brett had gone. No. 7 had been keeping an eye on him. They had even taken Brett to the vet a few days previously and the vet had told them to leave him on the ground if the parents were attending. So they had been bringing him inside in a box each night but leaving him out in their front yard during the day and keeping their eye on him.

I happily put Brett in their garden, knowing he was in good hands. Brett's parents found him and started feeding him straight away (although he wasn't probably that hungry after a day at mine😉)

Now Brett is cared for by his mum and dad, and an entire street of neighbours. Number 7, 10, 12 and 14 are all looking out for Brett. As he can't fly yet, they'll take him inside each night to protect him from roaming pet cats.

A successful outcome for a baby magpie who has brought a street together ❤️ 🌱🐦

Ps. Roaming pet cats kill an average of 186 animals a year. Including 110 native wildlife species. 40 lizards and frogs, 42 birds, 28 mammals. Please keep your cats inside.

Little quokka with mother🥰

Fun fact: Quokkas give birth in late summer and their tiny joeys stay in the pouch until August or September. That's when you might spot a curious little one peeking out or taking its first hops into the world.

”This handsome young man is Jeremiah. Friday was a long day at work, I didn’t get a lunch. After leaving the barn around 9 I stopped by the McDonalds in Reading, Oh to grab some dinner. I ordered my food but realized as I got to the window to pay, I had left my wallet at work. I told this young man to cancel my order. His response was ”it’s ok ma’m I got you “ he then took his wallet out and paid for my meal. What an amazing young man! We hear so much about what’s wrong with the world I had to share a little of what is right. I am just now posting this because I wanted his permission and I wanted to repay him for his kindness. I asked him if I could hug him and told him to keep being who he is because he is an amazing person. He didn’t know how tired I was or that I hadn’t eaten or even if he would be repaid but he didn’t even bat an eye and
just acted. ❤️ ”

They can’t tell us what they have been through, but we can tell this guys had it pretty rough lately. He recently sustained an injury to his front limb and is also dealing with a nasty skin infection. Since skunks use their front limbs to dig in the dirt for insects and he hasn’t been able to use his - he hasn’t had much to eat lately. He is very underweight. The plan is to treat the infection and give the limb some time to heal. Then we have to help him figure out how to dig with what he has left.

I know you are going to ask, so I will go ahead and tell you - yes he sprayed. He was terrified. He didn’t know we were teying to help and that’s his main defense mechanism.

I have a defense mechanism of my own though - I know how to express the glands they use to spray, so I can empty them out. It’s a stinky process, but it renders him unable to spray us for about a week - after which they will have filled back up. This enables our team to tend to him without having to run to the shower and open all the windows afterwards lol.

I’m thankful we can help give this litle guy the second chance he deserves.

The zoo was quiet that afternoon as a hospital bed was wheeled into the giraffe enclosure. In it lay Mario, 54, frail but smiling — returning one last time to the animals he’d loved for decades.

He wasn’t a zookeeper by title, but by heart. For years, he cleaned and cared for the giraffes, speaking to them like family. Now, dying of cancer, his final wish was to say goodbye.

As the bed stopped near the enclosure, one giraffe stepped forward. Slowly, it bent down and pressed its nose against Mario’s face — a silent, tender farewell. Tears rolled down his cheeks as he reached up to touch the animal that had shared so many of his days.

“They recognized him,” said a volunteer. “It was extraordinary.”

Shortly after, Mario passed away. But that moment — a gentle kiss between man and animal — became eternal, reminding us that love and compassion need no words.
