Summer is bird-nado season in raptor rehab!! We have received 92 birds in the last two weeks. That’s 15% of our annual volume and is typical for this time of year. We are seeing mostly sick and injured Cooper’s Hawk and Red-tailed Hawk fledglings, but today we got this young Burrowing Owl, who got caught in a barbed wire fence. Amazingly his wing is mostly intact, despite some bad wounds. Our fingers are crossed he can make a full recovery , but he’s got a lot of healing to do!

We are getting busy! Even our foster mamas have their hands full this time of year! All of the young Great Horned Owls we’ve admitted this spring are in an outdoor flight cage with an adult who is showing them the ropes. Our resident Red-tailed Hawk was paired with a nestling, who has grown a lot since she came into our care!

These two, slightly older baby Great Horned Owls are approximately 3-4 weeks old. 🥰

Our first, second and third baby Great Horned Owls of the season arrived within 18 hours of one another, starting Wednesday evening. This little one fell from its nest in a spruce tree. We estimate s/he is 5 or 6 days old. Hobbies include eating, sleeping and growing. Here s/he is snuggled up in our temperature-controlled brooder.

This Great Horned Owl was shot in the head with a BB. He is recovering from an eye injury and fracture from being shot. Most often, when we admit birds of prey that have been shot, it has been done with BB guns and pellet guns. Anyone caught harming or killing a bird of prey faces fines and possible jail time.

These two don’t know it yet, but they are cleared for release as soon as the snow melts! We like to make sure it is as easy as it can be for them to hunt upon release. Birds of Prey Foundation is beyond grateful for the support of our extended community as we work to return injured raptors to the wild! Thank you so much and Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Every summer, the young Swainson’s Hawks amaze and delight us with their combination of toughness and goofiness. This little guy was well enough to move from our ICU to an outdoor flight cage today. If all goes well, he will join a kettle of other youngsters and they will fly to Argentina together in the fall! In the meantime, they are all eating a ton of food to ready themselves for migration.

It’s officially summer at Birds of Prey - we received our first baby Cooper’s Hawk of the year over the weekend! He/she joins many other fledglings in our care, including Great Horned Owls, Red-tailed Hawks, American Kestrels and a few Common Ravens. They are all keeping us very busy!
