Fawn will recouperate at DVWR

Wing wrapped to help heal.

Healthy and strong the Red-shouldered hawk took to the skies today.

This time of year babies of various species are brought to DVWR for care.   Two Great Horned Owls recently arrived and received excellent prognosis. Once they achieve a certain level of growth and demonstrate hunting abilities they will be returned to the wild.

Spring brings new life to DVWR. Photo of rescued baby Great Horned Owl at just a few days old and then 10 days later looking well-fed and growing!

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