Great Horned Owls increasing in size!

This baby hawk is receiving care at DVWR. Growing strong day by day.

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.

After months of constant care they successfully took their leave.

An open neck wound on the grebe is healing nicely. Before flight, the hawk chatted with Evelyn.

2014 was a busy time at Dayton Valley Wildlife Reststop including rehabilitation and release of hawks, owls, and a badger!
