From A Place Called Hope

This sweet baby Eastern Screech Owl was delivered to the Torrington PD after being dropped by a hawk. The baby’s origin is unknown, but he is safe and has no real injuries!! So lucky and so cute.

Just a reminder to always make note of the location you pick up injured wildlife for the ultimate goal of return. It’s not always possible, like in this scenario, but when it is, it helps us to do the best for recovered patients.

    I love all those animal tunnels and fish ladders and all that stuff! We don’t need to obliterate nature to have our modern necessities and conveniences, we just need to be thoughtful about it! We can and should do better.

    The NIMBYs are the worst. They want all this stuff, they just don’t want to have to think of the cost, or heaven forbid, have to live with the cost themselves.

      Thank you for a healthy and uplifting discussion, as well as your informative posts. I keep subbing to superbowl groups for eye bleach and the stories that warm my heart.

        It’s my pleasure to share these things with you all. It’s been feeling a little deader lately, but it’s still fun for me, and I know those of you that do check in regularly really love it. They’re wonderful animals.
