Sarah Streetman On Monday, May 5th, the Northern Neck Audubon Society will present a program featuring Sarah Streetman, a wildlife rehabilitator from the Middle Peninsula. As a young child, Sarah Streetman spent huge amounts of time roaming the woods and fields of her hometown, High Point, North Carolina watching and learning from animals and birds. People often brought wounded or orphaned creatures for her to help. Over the years she has spent great amounts of time along the coasts and marshes of the Florida Coast, the Maine and New England Coasts, and the Carolina Low Country before moving to the Tidewater Area of Virginia. In the late 1980�s, Streetman began to care for injured and orphaned mammals and birds for the Commonwealth of Virginia through Wildcare, Inc. In the early 1990�s, she became a licensed Virginia Wildlife Rehabilitator. Within a few years, she became a federally licensed migratory bird permit holder, allowing her to care for songbirds, shore birds, waterfowl, and birds of prey. Streetman�s program will concentrate on her experiences with the songbirds, shore birds, waterfowl and birds of prey in our area of the Middle Peninsula and the Northern Neck. This program, is open to all, attendees are invited for refreshments after the program.
