Young wildlife at DVWR are thriving!

Red-shouldered hawks are becoming more common in our area.  

This Sandhill Crane is receiving care at DVWR

After arriving quite famished from migration and unable to fly, the Egret regained good health under Evelyn’s specialized care and was then released to a beneficial habitat.  

American Kestrels are fledging now and sometimes they need some extra help like this young one.  They eat spiders, moths, cicadas and grasshoppers to name just a small portion of their diet, which is a good reason not to spray pesticides. Mike and the kestrel exchange information at intake.
