Hawk and Owl

Wild Bird Wednesday.

I don't have any new pictures of wild birds today so I'm sharing some bird photos from a few years ago. These raptors are in benign captivity, having been rescued and treated and now serving as animal ambassadors, making educational appearances to the public. 

The red-tailed hawk and barn owl were shown by staff members of a non-profit called Secret Garden Birds and Bees

    1. Not that I have heard of. They probably like a specific environment for breeding; a home territory safe for hatchlings.

  3. What great photos, it's as if they are thinking something important, if only cameras could read their minds!
