I figured you guys may enjoy some of the pictures I've taken the past three weeks at the Refuge while I've been interning there. It's a bit of a commute down Rt. 70 (for those who know NJ), about an hour and half from me, but I only work 2 days a week from 9-5pm. I wish it were more, but that commute isn't feasible and I can't NOT work over the summer so living there really isn't possible, though offered. I really LOVE it. I can only work with non-rabies animals which reduces me to birds, hawks and raptors, rabbits, opossums and fawns. But that is okay, seeing as how Rabies Vaccs are not covered by insurance and they are about $100 a shot for 3. But anyway, I had some pictures to share that I think you guys would like.

My favorite part, these guys are the cutest little things!:D

I should get some pictures of the opossums, and whenever I release an animal, there will surely be a video. :)

Wow! Sorry the chickadee didn't make it. But thanks for taking pictures and then showing them to us! How many fawns did they have?
