The Grafton Community Library is sponsoring Wildlife Alive! on Saturday July 18 at the Grafton Summer Festival from 11 am until 1 pm. Licensed wildlife rehabilitator Kelly Martin will introduce some of the birds of prey and other live animals in her care. Learn about where and how they live, and what to do if you find orphaned or injured wildlife. [private] Wildlife rehabilitators licensed by New York State DEC care for injured or orphaned wildlife for release back into the wild. Rehabilitators volunteer their time and do not receive funding for expenses associated with their services.
Kelly Martin serves as president of the New York State Wildlife Rehabilitation Council, is an education assistant at the Huyck Preserve, and holds a federal Migratory Bird Permit and a New York State Education/Exhibit Special License. Stop by the library’s booth to browse the paperbacks for sale and learn more about the Grafton Historical Mosaic project and other unique programs to come. Visit www.graftoncommunitylibrary.org for information about the free services and programs available at the library. In case of rain, the program will be at the library, located at 2455 NY Route 2.
