[mou-net] Barn Owl taken to raptor center

2020-01-12 Thread Kim Eckert
Just received a call from Linda Sparling that the owl in Sax-Zim along CR 7 is now on its way to The Raptor Center in St. Paul. It was noted to be in obvious bad shape and not flying well so it was picked up and is now en route to St. Paul. It was described as still alive but just barely so.

Just because you think harassment is not a problem to another being does not mean it truly is not a problem. Ask anyone or any rescue animal what they have experienced that makes their personality the way it has become. Chase On Sun, Jan 12, 2020 at 1:54 PM linda whyte <

I was stunned to see the post, and I'm glad of your explanation. I just hope observers will show ethical behavior, as this has not always been the case with owls in the past. If nothing else, it should make us more proactive in protecting this particular habitat as well as the species. We're

This bird is out of its seasonal range and needs its time and energy to hunt and survive. Having dozens or more birders harass it is not going to help it do so. This location should not be shared. Florinus Kooyman On Sat, Jan 11, 2020 at 5:08 PM Anthony Hertzel wrote: > A barn owl has been
