High wind survivor

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.  

Seen in the daytime more often than other owls, it was a brief stay for this Short-eared Owl.

Four  young Barn Owls that had received care at DVWR were deemed healthy and old enough to be released at various locations around the Fallon area. Owls are nocturnal so their release took place at night.

While at DVWR this baby owl will be fed a specialized diet to strengthen bones.

After months and months of care and learning to hunt for themselves numerous owls were released back into the wild.
