wildlife rehab volunteering report: dull version
it's pretty dull right now! a few seagulls, pigeons, owls, and leftover raccoons... one bat (that I didn't get to see), one flying squirrel (that I very quietly worked around while cleaning the nursery/ward), the usual half-dozen raccoons (in their silo outdoors), and the hibernating bear cubs and bobkittens are doing just fine. a few other assorted small birds, but that's really about it.
@ElectricKeet I never noticed, though, so you're internet famous to me! ^_____^
@zebratron2084 traditionally, I think it involves setting something on fire?
@zebratron2084 yay! have fun! :D
@Roady_Dragonfae *gentle nosebump*
@sydneyfalk mmm, tasty recursion snacks
volunteering, kinfeels
@forestservice oh wow yes, THIS.
@chosafine@instance.business naw, it's legit--it's a self-care thing. or, for me anyway, I'd be doing some self-examination of "do I really *not want to go*, or am I just feeling unmotivated to go and I'd actually be fine and enjoy myself if I did push past this first "don'twanna" thing?" but, well, yeah. XD

Yeah, even as a kid I thought that, irrespective of the larger metaphor of humanity's relationship to the rest of nature
@mawr ooooh, yikes! that sounds plush-bristling!
@mawr it's good to know your subconscious has the proper response reflexes to emergencies! ;)
