Barred Owl Release

Barred Owl 24-372 was admitted November 3, 2024 with a right shoulder injury and a broken rib. After 2 1/2 weeks of cage rest the owl was moved to the large flight pen. He(?) was soon making multiple flights the length of the pen. We released him on the Umatilla Indian Reservation at Wetlands Park a few miles from where he had been found.
