Tawny Owls need to learn the Green Cross Code!

We’ve recently taken in two Tawny Owls who have been involved in collisions with vehicles.

This individual was found by one of our volunteers after being seen by the roadside and was unable to fly or stand. Upon investigation he was found to have a slight fracture to the pelvis which luckily was not displaced so we hope with a bit of rest and recovery he will be back to normal. Until then he is enjoying a much needed warm break from the weather!

Our second Tawny patient found itself concussed after flying into the finder's lorry. He was kind enough to pick him up and bring him to us for assessment and was found, albeit a bit dizzy, to be suffering no obvious injuries. A very lucky tawny! He should be on his way soon after some rest and recovery
