Freshly washed of oil, Clarks and Western Grebes, float in a cold water pool at the oiled wildlife care center in Cordelia, CA. Updated numbers on the oiled birds response:
715 live birds
183 washed of oil
511 dead
All of the birds are being treated at the OWCN's San Francisco Bay Oiled Wildlife Care and Education Center in Cordelia.
California Fish & Game and IBRRC wildlife rescue teams continue to comb the bay and beaches to collect birds for treatment after the SF Bay spill that happened nearly a week ago.

I just saw thousands of ducks in the estuary in south Oakland (Martin Luther King Jr. estuary). This place does not usually have thousands of ducks. Are they swimming down from the oil spills or has a rescue team physically moved them here for safety?
Thank you if you can provide an answer. I am a reporter.
