The Season begins….Spring 2017
The owl baby season is upon us.
Barn Owl young are found in haystacks when hay is sold off and used up. This
little one is growing.
Great Horned Owl young are getting blown out of their nests from high winds.
These four Great Horned Owls are making great progress.
A cat raided a rabbit’s nest. Hopefully this 9 day old cottontail, with eyes still closed, will grow strong & then when old enough be returned to the wild.
An open neck wound on the grebe is healing nicely. Before flight, the hawk chatted with Evelyn.
After a very specialized treatment plan, the eagle recovered and was transported for release. The eagle flew to a large cottonwood tree looked around for about twenty minutes then took off for parts unknown.
This Sandhill Crane is receiving care at DVWR
The orphaned young are receiving great care at DVWR. A Kestrel, 2 Copper’s Hawks and baby bunnies are newest arrivals. Please remember to make a donation to DVWR for raptor food!
