Owl Release

Yesterday, I was lucky enough to watch 2 immature male snowy owls be released on the Audubon Center property. These birds were brought up by The Raptor Center so they could begin their migration north. It is always great to see the birds return to the wild!

It landed in a tree and immediately got mobbed by crows!

There is also a video of the release if you want to watch it: Snowy Release
