Common Nighthawk now in residence

For safety reasons, the power company removed a Red-tailed Hawk Nest and quickly brought it Evelyn.  Two hatched in good health!

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

After months and months of care and learning to hunt for themselves numerous owls were released back into the wild.

During an overnight rainstorm a large cottonwood tree fell across a swiftly flowing ditch in Fallon. The next morning a passing bicyclist noticed a injured hawk on the downed tree and notified Department of Wildlife.

Aside from the more familiar sparrows, ducks, owls, & hawks, a Eared Grebe is currently in residence.

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.
