G20 protester is not a WRAS Volunteer
20 April 2009
Several papers/news agencies have printed that the G20 protester Nicola Fisher "works for East Sussex Wildlife Rescue and Ambulance Service".
We would like to make it clear that Miss Fisher is not a volunteer for East Sussex Wildlife Rescue and Ambulance Service. Although she did spend a brief period of time over 2 years ago helping to support one of our Brighton rescuers who has now retired. Miss Fisher does not volunteer for our charity.
This information has not come from our charity nor from Miss Fisher and do not know where this information has come from. East Sussex WRAS has not been involved in anyway with the G20 protests and does not have any opinion on the G20 or the protesters campaign.

It is very easy to assume a bird has been abandoned when you find it on the ground, but quite often it is a fledgling learning to fly. When a fledgling takes its first flight it is going to be unsuccessful, it is natural for them to spend 2-3 days on the ground sometimes before they can fly properly. Mum and dad will normally be nearby but they do not always fly down to feed every few minutes as they are trying to encourage the youngster to fly. Both the youngster and the parents are good at hiding themselves.
