What’s that little silver band on the eagle’s leg? This small tag has a big purpose, connecting one bird’s journey to a nationwide effort in wildlife research and conservation. 🦅 #BirdBanding #RaptorRehab #BaldEagle #WildlifeConservation

Meet Fritz, a Western Screech Owl from Juneau AK! 🦉 Fritz came to us back in Oct, with a major metacarpal break, making his future uncertain. After months of rehab, Fritz was ready and we were thrilled to release him back into the wild! #WildAndFree #RaptorRehab #OwlRelease #ScreechOwl

The Alaska Raptor Center's Spring Eagle Release was a huge success, with seven rehabilitated Bald Eagles soared back into the wild! A huge thank you to everyone who supports our work! #EagleRelease #WildAndFree #BaldEagle #RaptorRehab #Freedom

This American Kestrel is a rescue. I have yet to get an image of one in the wild and am looking forward to it. Such a beautiful bird.

Last year, I completely fell in love with this little owl at the Labyrinth Masquerade. I was delighted to see Freya again this year and do another photo shoot with her.
