Great-horned Owls at ARC

I couldn't escape work to help with the new owls that needed banding. They were set for the weekend but the date was moved up. But there some good shots from the day to post.

This time they had some Great-horned Owls. Wish I could have been there as those birds are extremely cool. Here Scott McCorkle holds up the first bird to band.



The bands are applied.



Sometimes it take 3 to get through the operation!



We have a bigger group of birds to handle during the upcoming weekend. Can't wait.
