Injured in a collision with a semi-truck  this Golden Eagle appears to be making a good comeback. Great horned owl babies are growing fast  and although not readily seen in the image a young hummingbird is the smallest guest at DVWR.  

The orphaned pronghorn fawn that came in early summer was released in good habitat. .

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

American Kestrels are fledging now and sometimes they need some extra help like this young one.  They eat spiders, moths, cicadas and grasshoppers to name just a small portion of their diet, which is a good reason not to spray pesticides. Mike and the kestrel exchange information at intake.

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.
