Twin Tales: The Owl In The Box

"This Week at Hilton Pond" our facility was home for a few hours to an orphaned Great Horned Owl, which is now growing up at the Carolina Raptor Center. For a photo essay about this fluffy little bird--including how it was found and how it looked and acted--please check out the current installment for 8-14 March 2006 by clicking on the title above.

As always we include a tally of birds banded during the period, plus several miscellaneous natural history notes.

Please try again if the page loads slowly; it's probably because lots of people are on-line watching the NCAA basketball tournament. March madness, indeed!


Happy Nature Watching!
