SANIBEL, Fla. (WINK)— The Clinic for the Rehabilitation of Wildlife is asking for handmade nests to help care for orphaned and injured baby birds and small mammals during baby season.
According to the clinic, CROW needs knitted or crocheted nests in 8-inch, 10-inch and 12-inch diameters. The nests should be made with tight stitches, soft but sturdy construction and machine-washable materials such as acrylic or cotton yarn.

Fuzzy yarns, large holes, decorations, or anything that could snag on tiny claws should be avoided.
The nests help provide warmth, comfort and support for vulnerable wildlife during rehabilitation.
Donations may be delivered to CROW Visitor Education Center or mailed to CROW at P.O. Box 150, Sanibel, FL 33957.
