  • Ya it could be a Grackle. Does it move the injured wing in any way normally? If it can’t move the wing at all normally it may not heal well without medical intervention. Unfortunately their wings are very delicate. It sounds like you’ve done all you can in terms of phoning vets and rehabs, so I can’t really help much there, but just keep up what you are doing and keep checking with the rehabs that take small birds. Either the wing heals on it’s own or not, but either way it feels like you are doing all the right things. I hope it works out!



  • The biggest thing to practice at first is tension. If you are yanking the yarn tight, it will make the rest of the work on the project far more difficult and require a lot more force from your wrist. Looser tension and a more relaxed posture in general will reduce strain. But it really just comes with practice. You’ll get there if you stick with it and find your own rhythm and way to hold your yarn that works for you.
