After a very specialized treatment plan, the eagle recovered and was transported
for release. The eagle flew to a large cottonwood tree looked around for about twenty minutes
then took off for parts unknown.
After months of constant care they successfully took their leave.
This baby hawk is receiving care at DVWR. Growing strong day by day.
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.
A Great Horned Owl baby is at DVWR along with some very young jackrabbits.
All are doing well.
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!
The release of a Great Horned Owl and Red-tailed Hawk have kicked off the season. New arrivals included a Screech Owl & Golden Eagle and a rabbit all are receiving the best care.
A good Samaritan brought in a Red-tail Hawk found standing by the side of the road. Evelyn determined the injuries, which luckily were minor. The raptor then did a quick recovery at DVWR and released into the Nevada sky!
For six weeks DVWR continued to take in hundreds of shorebirds suffering from the botulism outbreak at Carson Lake in Churchill County. All hands were on deck for the monumental task of caring for the new arrivals. Additional space was needed so a new flight pen was constructed under Mike’s direction, Evelyn trained volunteers to assist with the immediate hydration & then feeding needs. With this specialized care many of the birds showed signs of recovery, gained strength and were on their feet! Many thanks to the onsite feeding volunteers, those who drove 120 miles roundtrip from Fallon to Dayton Valley Wildlife Reststop bringing the suffering birds in for care, and those who coordinated and sent donations for feeding supplies. When Evelyn determined the birds were strong enough, they were released in different wetland areas well away from Carson Lake.
