recording our adventures and experiences
Flying a Snowy Owl
January 14th, 2012 bnwilson1188Rehab flights from December 31st, 2009. The Raptor Center currently has 3 Snowy’s and they should be ready for rehab flying next month.
BAEG release–Dec 31 2011
December 31st, 2011 bnwilson1188Terry and I took a Bald Eagle to Hastings, MN for a release. This bird was one of the largest juveniles we have ever had, weighing in at over 6,000 grams (or over 13 pounds). The releaser was Dave Gysbers, a 7 year volunteer at the Raptor Center. It was fun to watch the last release of 2011.
Bald Eagle Release
December 10th, 2011 bnwilson1188Yesterday, Terry and I drove to Hastings to release another BAEG (Bald Eagle) from the Raptor Center. We drove to Carpenter Nature Center which sits on a high bluff overlooking the St. Croix River. The only person we found on the grounds was Alan, an employee of Carpenter, so we decided to let him toss the bird. Sunny and cold – beautiful day for a release.
Enjoying the Journey
