2014 was a busy time at Dayton Valley Wildlife Reststop including rehabilitation and release of hawks, owls, and a badger!
The young Pronghorn Antelope is growing fast.
Aside from the more familiar sparrows, ducks, owls, & hawks, a Eared Grebe is currently in residence.
This orphaned 8-day-old baby sparrow is one of many birds that are receiving care especially during this time of year. At this stage the chicks are extremely fragile, must have an external heat source and are fed very frequently. They are kept in incubators with make shift nests sometimes created by just using the toe of a sock.
This Swenson’s Hawk has an injured leg but making a remarkable recovery.
