Baby Season!

After months of constant care they successfully took their leave.

Seen in the daytime more often than other owls, it was a brief stay for this Short-eared Owl.

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!  

  A young hawk was extremely dehydrated and malnourished when brought to DVWR today.  There are many hawks and owls recuperating here and they have specific nutritional requirements for proper development & good health.  Monetary donations are urgently needed to purchase mice from our certified vendor.  Please consider sending your monetary donation and by doing so you will be providing lifesaving nourishment for…

Three early hatch Red-tailed Hawk nestlings were blown from nest and brought to DVWR.

Many thanks to Girl Scout Troop 317!  The hard-working troop designed, raised money for materials, built & set-up a new flight pen. Troop Leaders Lesli Spears and Robin Fowler with Scouts Emma, Neva, Lauren, Page, Hailey, Soleil, Raechel, Lexi, Sophia and Katrina did a remarkable job and the first resident settled right in.
