Lots happening at DVWR

A good Samaritan brought in a Red-tail Hawk found standing by the side of the road.  Evelyn determined the injuries, which luckily were minor.  The raptor then did a  quick recovery at DVWR and released into the Nevada sky!

An open neck wound on the grebe is healing nicely. Before flight, the hawk chatted with Evelyn.

While at DVWR this baby owl will be fed a specialized diet to strengthen bones.

Spring brings new life to DVWR. Photo of rescued baby Great Horned Owl at just a few days old and then 10 days later looking well-fed and growing!

Many baby Desert Cottontails are brought to DVWR in the spring for various reasons. Their round tails are dark on top and white underneath resembling a cotton ball and their large ears radiate body heat, cooling them during the hot summer months.
