He's out!

Remember the Barbed wire owl? We were finally able to locate his home range and get him out! It is rare for us to be able to release an who was caught on a barbed wire fence. Usually there is so much tissue loss and exposed bone that euthanasia is the out come. So if we seem a little excited excuse us. His mate is more than likely trying to feed babies. "How do you know?" you ask. Because the first orphan GHO of the season is headed to us. Great Horned Nest in the winter time. During the recent visit by the Polar Vortex the GHO's were sitting on eggs. During the recent "snow/ice event" babies were hatching. On Thursday after the event we received 2 calls about seeing babies peeking over the edge of nests. The baby headed to us is from an egg laid  before Christmas.

Thanks to Kristin Drummond from Fox 24 news in Macon did a very nice presentation of Bubba and Friends on 2-5-14.  Thanks to the folks around Perry and Bonaire for the $65 in donations.

If the weather cooperates Buckshot will be leaving us shortly.
