An apparent injured adult Brown Booby was found at 1pm on January 29/2018 at Ogden Point in Victoria. The bird was photographed by Ashley Olender who didn't realize what it was. June Elaine Pigeon found the bird at the same site later in the afternoon and noticed it was immobile and shivering and called the SPCA. The bird was then transported to SPCA's Wild ARC rehab facility.

Sadly, despite best efforts, this bird died on Feb 3rd at Wild Arc.
Thank you to Wild Arc and especially to June Pigeon for aiding this bird as best as they could.
