| Owls |
These two Barred Owls are a mother and her nestling. The mother was
struck by a car. The owlet was rescued from its nest tree by the Killingly
Fire Department after people watching noticed that his sibling was gone
from the tree, and no adults had been seen. The two birds were banded
and released near their nest site. This has been one of our most satisfying
releases to date.

This Barred Owl came to us after being struck
by a car in Tolland, Ct. She was quite unusual
as she was lighter in color than most Barred
Owls. Notice the difference in the picture on
