The Season begins….Spring 2017
The owl baby season is upon us.
Barn Owl young are found in haystacks when hay is sold off and used up. This
little one is growing.
Great Horned Owl young are getting blown out of their nests from high winds.
These four Great Horned Owls are making great progress.
Three early hatch Red-tailed Hawk nestlings were blown from nest and brought to DVWR.
Evelyn assessed just a short stay at DVWR for this young hawk. Possibly stunned from a window strike, proper nutrition will boost the hawk’s strength and flying skills in preparation for release.
Law Enforcement helped shuttle an orphaned owl from Battle Mountain. LE also happened to be transporting someone and by the time the trio arrived the owl had a name, Benson! Ride sharing is a good thing! Coordinated through FlyAway Bird Rescue in Silver Springs, who then transferred the owl to Dayton Valley Wildlife Reststop. Benson…
After a return to health at DVWR, this Red-tailed Hawk made a quick exit!
