In three days, on Wednesday night, April 20th - the anniversary of the Deepwater Horizon explosion in the Gulf of Mexico, a very special film will air on HBO, Saving Pelican 895.
This award winning documentary by filmmaker Irene Taylor Brodsky, chronicles the journey of one young pelican - from when he was first rescued, covered in oil, through his rehabilitation, to his subsequent return to the wild. You'll get a first-hand look at the intense process of caring for oiled wildlife and how many people are involved - and you just might recognize one or two of them!

Our Earth Day event, Worldwide Fishing Line Cleanup, is shaping up nicely! We've received pledges from people in the United Kingdom and Australia!!! Should be fun. If you have not picked a spot to canvas, please do, It can be anywhere and any time on the 23rd. Just emailearthday@wildrescue.org. Here's a great news article about the event.
Lastly, we received an email this week from our friend, the Turkey Whisperer. He wanted to share a recent photo of Pinky with us. Handsome! If you don't know the story of Pinky, it's pretty incredible. Please check out the story on our blog.
Okay, that's a wrap.
