Benson brought it on!
After becoming fully feathered and quickly demonstrating skills to survive, Benson was released into the wild.

The orphaned pronghorn fawn that came in early summer was released in good habitat. .
Seen in the daytime more often than other owls, it was a brief stay for this Short-eared Owl.
Hopefully just a quick rest at DVWRS for this raptor. An observant resident notified the Fallon office of Department of Wildlife the hawk was on the ground unable to fly. Not seen as frequently as other hawks, it is good news the Red-shouldered Hawk is expected a quick recovery.
The young Pronghorn Antelope is growing fast.
While at DVWR this baby owl will be fed a specialized diet to strengthen bones.
