Great Horned Owl 25-180 arrived at our center not because he was injured, but because someone thought he needed rescuing, when he was just starting to explore the world outside his nest. He was a healthy fledgling in his “brancher” stage, a time when young owls leave the nest and start exploring nearby branches. It may look like they’re lost or abandoned, but in most cases, these fledglings are doing exactly what they’re supposed to do while their parents stay nearby, watching and feeding them.

This Great Horned Owl’s story began when a caring individual found the bird down on their property. Instead of turning away, they safely contained the owl and drove an hour to bring it to us. When it arrived, the owl was starving, weak, and—after a run-in with a skunk—very stinky. With dedicated care from our volunteers, this bird has made a full recovery and is back where it belongs—wild and free. Success stories like this are possible because of your support.
