Release!

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

So named it is said because one of the calls it makes sounds like a saw being sharpened on a wet stone.  The Northern Saw-whet is looking good!

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.
