Kestrel time at DVWR

Bydaytonvalleywildlifereststop June 29, 2018October 28, 2023

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.

A baby jackrabbit will receive TLC while at DVWR. Cornered by a dog, the baby was retrieved and arrived as a 5 day old leveret, the name for a baby jackrabbit. Even though they are called jackrabbits, the baby is a hare, differing from rabbits with larger size, longer ears and longer hind legs.

New Arrival– and a Short Stay

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.
