Barn Owls Released
November 18, 2004
We released two barn owls on Thursday, 11/18. One
was a youngster from a very late clutch, that fledged at Seneca Sawmill into
a dangerous area, and may have had a collision, as he had enough feathers to
fly, but couldn't; he was rescued by a night security guard on 10/25. The
other came in 10/9 after being hit by a car out in the valley and badly
bruised. He had limited function in one leg and wasn't flying. Both birds
were kept through live prey training and released only after it was obvious
that they were maintaining and even gaining weight, everything functional. They were released together into a barn in Pleasant Hill.
