Photo of the Day

Today is Patrick's last day of raptor camp. After working with a goshawk, large owls, and a red-tailed hawk at the Animal Rescue, this little one-eyed screech owl is not quite as exciting, but Patrick enjoys it anyway. He even received some kudos for his handling of "Screech" when he tried to fly away; Patrick calmly held on and helped Screech back to a perch position.

While he poses for the cameras, he tells the leaders how he was feeding a goshawk once and...well, his story went on for awhile and he just held that little guy still the whole time. Patrick was also proud to be able to wear his own gauntlet and not one from camp.
