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.
2014 was a busy time at Dayton Valley Wildlife Reststop including rehabilitation and release of hawks, owls, and a badger!
This baby Great Horned Owl is recovering at DVWR after being blown out of the nest during a storm and sustaining an eye injury. Prognosis very good!
After arriving quite famished from migration and unable to fly, the Egret regained good health under Evelyn’s specialized care and was then released to a beneficial habitat.
While at DVWR this baby owl will be fed a specialized diet to strengthen bones.
The release of a Great Horned Owl and Red-tailed Hawk have kicked off the season. New arrivals included a Screech Owl & Golden Eagle and a rabbit all are receiving the best care.
Even with the end of nesting season, important rehabilitation work continues at DVWR. Click on the title above to see pictures of the three latest releases!
