Wildfire burned near a nest of curlew birds. People found four curlew eggs and saved them. The eggs were kept safe until they could hatch. Now the eggs have hatched, and four chicks are here. The chicks are very small and need care. Experts will look after them until they grow strong. After that, they will be released back into the wild. This is a big win for the birds and for nature. The rescue helped the eggs survive the fire.
