Northern Saw-whet Owl

This Northern Saw-whet Owl was brought to us on October 23, 2007. It has blood and internal trauma of the left eye. We started the owl on steroids and the eye is already looking much better. We will soon transfer it into a flight cage where we can introduce live mice to see if it can still hunt. Saw-whet Owls only reside in Ohio during the winter months. The owl is very small, about the size of a robin.You can find out more about Wildlife Rehabilation on our website.
