Released back to their favorite environment, the water.

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.

The orphaned young are receiving great care at DVWR.  A Kestrel, 2 Copper’s Hawks and baby bunnies are newest arrivals.  Please remember to make a donation to DVWR for raptor food!
