Today was vaccination day at ARC! Ever since the loss of Windy, who was most likely lost to the West Nile Virus, we made the decision to vaccinate our education birds, who live in outside facilities. The West Nile vaccine costs $60 per bird and we vaccinated 20 birds today! This additional expense is occurring right after our busy baby season, and your assistance would be greatly appreciated! Staff, volunteers, and birds alike thank you for your continued support so we can continue to educate the public and rehabilitate birds of prey!

Amelia our Red Shouldered Hawk is growing up. She still has her juvenile heart feathers on her body but her legs...those are feathers of a mature RSHA.

Ospreys are the most difficult raptors to manage in captivity. They get very nervous and unwilling to eat. This little fledgling was brought to us, not eating and losing weight. It weighed in at 954g. Placing it out in the mew with Galina (our Osprey), it saw Galina eating the fish we gave her and it has started eating. Falling out of its nest, it did not sustain any injuries.
