A coastal B.C. relay of three eagles, told in three flights…
Volunteer pilot @Fraserrecon departed Vancouver in his amphibious aircraft (a plane equipped to take off and land on both water and runways), heading for Bella Bella.
Waiting there: two rehabilitated eagles cleared by @OWLRehab to return to the wild. With the birds secured and weather checked, he turned north to Masset, where both eagles were released back to coastal skies.
The mission wasn’t over. In Masset, a third eagle—injured and in need of specialized care—was ready for transport. He set course south and flew the raptor patient to Vancouver, where the team at OWL (Orphaned Wildlife Rehabilitation Society) stood by to receive it.
From Vancouver to Bella Bella to Masset and back to Vancouver, we can’t thank @Fraserrecon enough for his commitment and generous donation of his time and aircraft.

We’re still squeezing in a few more transports in 2025!
A sandhill crane found near Sault Ste. Marie was cared for by a local community member, who lovingly named him “Sugar,” while they searched for help. At roughly nine months old and orphaned, he needed to head south for rehab to survive the winter.
This weekend, volunteer pilot Gerd W. met Sugar in Sault Ste. Marie and flew him to Muskoka Airport, where @WoodlandsWildlifeSanctuary picked him up for transfer to Minden, Ontario.
At this time of year, challenging weather conditions are expected. Gerd navigated tight weather windows over several days, saving the team a drive of over 12 hours. Safety, planning, and partnership made it possible.
Thank you to Woodlands Wildlife Sanctuary, the individual who cared for Sugar, and Gerd for seeing this through. This is public-benefit flying in action!

Calling all wildlife organizations! It`s never too early to begin thinking about your busy spring seasons.
This year alone, our volunteer pilots helped transport a turkey vulture, countless owls, a swan, hawks, eagles, a turtle, and a crane. In past seasons, even a coyote and a bear cub. We coordinate no-cost, short-haul flights that reduce stress and speed up transfers between rehab centres, vets, and release sites.
How it works: you request a transport; we reach out to our network of volunteer pilots; together we confirm the safest plan.
What helps us help you:
-Species and crate dimensions
-Origin, destination, and target timing
-Handling notes (quiet loading areas, temperature needs, etc.)

Thanks to our volunteer pilot Walter, Gambit the swan safely made its way to @WildlifeRescueBC. 💙
After arrival at their facilities, the rescue’s team identified Gambit specifically as a Tundra Swan — a species of special concern in BC.
Unfortunately, the bird has several injuries consistent with a hard impact, including swelling and bruising, difficulty walking, and signs of head trauma.
The good news: he is eating well and receiving pain management, antibiotics, and close monitoring.
While the prognosis remains uncertain, the care team is hopeful and will continue supporting Gambit as he rests and recovers.
Thank you to everyone who made this possible.
