Where the Deer and the Antelope Play…..

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.  

Red-shouldered hawks are becoming more common in our area.  

This baby Great Horned Owl is recovering at DVWR after being blown out of the nest during a storm and sustaining an eye injury.  Prognosis very good!

So named it is said because one of the calls it makes sounds like a saw being sharpened on a wet stone.  The Northern Saw-whet is looking good!

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.
