Peregrine In The Evening Light
Peregrine in the Evening Light was taken in the summer of 2008. The bird was in the shadows just as it was starting to get dark. Our little male peregrine was bred in captivity and is a human imprint.
"Sorren" Barn Owl
Soren the Barn Owl is by far is my favorite owl. At four days of age Sorren took a ride on a hay truck and was blown off and landed in the middle of the road. She remained there until someone noticed her move. By this time she had suffered 2nd and 3rd degree sun burn all over her body and was extremely dehydrated. When she finally opened her eyes we noticed that she could not see very well to eat, resulting in her become imprinted onto humans. She is now a full grown adult bird who educated children and adults all over Washington and Oregon states.
"Autumn" Female Great Horned Owl

"Patriot" the Bald Eagle

"Merlot" Male American Kestrel
Merlot the American Kestrel came to us after two children playing in their back yard thought it would be cute to catch up the baby Kestrel and pull out his feathers, he still to this day had problems growing out his tail. The feathers being pulled out cause feather folical damages. He drops his tail after the feather quits growing and hard pens.
