Release!

   A group of Great Horned Owls ranging in age from 3 to 7 weeks are receiving care.                                                     

 Great Horned Owl Red-tailed Hawk

This Cooper’s Hawk nestling is growing in size and appetite!

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

This orphaned 8-day-old baby sparrow is one of many birds that are receiving care especially during this time of year. At this stage the chicks are extremely fragile, must have an external heat source and are fed very frequently. They are kept in incubators with make shift nests sometimes created by just using the toe of a sock. 

Look what springtime brought to DVWR, a fledgling Saw-whet Owl! Rare for Nevada, Saw-Whet owls are only 8″ tall when full grown.
