It's baby season!


It's baby season here at Florida Wildlife Hospital, and all kinds of interesting babies are being admitted. We currently have mockingbirds, grackles, opossums, squirrels, rabbits, raccoons, a black vulture, a great blue heron, and my favorite, a juvenile screech owl. That baby's cage is right next to mine so I can help mentor him. Soon there will be more baby screech owls, I helped raise 17 of them last year. Here's a photo of a funny little guy, it's hard to believe that something this small will grow up to be a great blue heron.
