At 4.50 a.m. all was OK in the Sick-Bay and the new (green) Sparrowhawk was sleeping quietly. The Hedgehogs had eaten quite well. When we called the Police in Mytiléne at 7.45 a.m. to discuss the sending of the bird, it showed the bird had meanwhile . . . . flown away. So a night in custody is causing miracles !! Very carefully we started removing the 1st stitch from “Máska’s” head, so we’re moving in the right direction. The spot where the removed eye was situated in “Lapje’s” head is nice and quiet > no swellings or things like that. This in contrary with the amputated leg: is thick and warm and she is showing pain during toughing. Started with 1 ampoule Konakion i.m. (to benefit the coagulation) and further more 25 I.U. Depo-Medrate (Corticosteroid). We’ll keep having a sharp eye on the whole situation. We could remove lots of dead tissue and feathers from the wing of the new Dark Barn Owl; just next to the fracture-spot. As well a penetrating piece of bone could be shortened and coagulated. From the wing of the new Pale Barn Owl the bandage is removed and as well the hanging cast. Discovered was why the green Sparrowhawk was so malnourished: was shot (inshot-hole discovered in the left leg [tibia > is fractured]), due to which hunting was possible, but catching a prey was more difficult and eating almost impossible > as a Sparrowhawk one needs 2 legs to eat: 1 to hold firm the prey during the tearing to pieces, and the other to stand on.
Rectification for the Annual Report:
Because the name of our Dutch Bank has changed, the BIC and IBAN have changed as well. Is now:
