Jackrabbit on the mend.

After a very specialized treatment plan, the eagle recovered and was transported for release.   The eagle flew to a large cottonwood tree looked around for about twenty minutes then took off for parts unknown.  

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

This orphaned 8-day-old baby sparrow is one of many birds that are receiving care especially during this time of year. At this stage the chicks are extremely fragile, must have an external heat source and are fed very frequently. They are kept in incubators with make shift nests sometimes created by just using the toe of a sock. 

This Cooper’s Hawk nestling is growing in size and appetite!
