Abstract:
Mary Ellen Rogers started Sea Biscuit Wildlife Shelter on Oak Island in 2007. It is the only bird rescue facility on the Atlantic Coast between Morehead City and Charleston. A normal stay is six months, and if recovered, the bird is released; otherwise, it will be used by an educational facility to teach the public about bird life. A total of 398 birds were brought to the facility in 2010.
