Did you know that Barred Owls have an incredibly diverse diet? These magnificent creatures feast on small mammals, amphibians, reptiles, birds, invertebrates, and even fish! As expert ambush predators, they perch high above the ground, relying on their keen eyesight and exceptional hearing to pinpoint their next meal. Once they've locked onto their target, they swoop down with precision, snatching their prey with powerful feet and sharp talons—even when it's underwater! Check out this video of o

Today, the release of a Sandhill crane patient during daybreak was spectacular! She was admitted to Raptor Education Group, Inc. in August with a broken leg from Waupaca, WI. Her recovery was challenging, but today, she was strong, in perfect plumage, and ready to regain her place in the wild again. Be well, sweet girl!

Our volunteers are some of the most amazing people we know! We are grateful to each of them for taking time from their lives to help transport native wildlife to REGI for care. We can help our patients, but they must get to our clinic for that to happen. Tim Bassett volunteers not only for REGI but for several other agencies. Giving and caring is who he is at his core. We are grateful to have Tim Bassett as our volunteer transporter, who has brought over 200 injured wildlife patients to our door

This #FreedomFriday, we’re thrilled to share the heartwarming story of two Common Loons who were released back into the wild this past summer. Our Senior Avian Rehabilitator, Raven Hollimon, teamed up with Sam Schilli, one of our amazing summer interns, to give these majestic birds a second chance at life. Both loons arrived at our clinic with injuries from fishing hooks, but after receiving the care they needed, they were ready to grace the waters once again. The successful release of these loo

By great demand, we happily present videos from the remote cameras on the great-horned owlets and Pops, their foster dad. Here is a video from the remote camera on the enclosure containing the great-horned owlets and Pops! These clips were taken over several days. First, the tiny owlet remains in the basket, and the older owlet flies to POPS and nuzzles with him. Then, the youngest owlet stands on the edge of the basket while the older owlet jumps from perch to perch and preens Pops's face! One

Our two baby great-horned owlets have started to really explore their enclosure! The youngest has been getting braver and bolder and they both have been very active. Here you can see them flapping their wings, hopping from perch to perch, preening, and even a big rouse from our oldest. The youngest got a little ahead of herself in an attempt to reach the top perch, but she recovered. Clumsiness is all a part of their learning process! | Raptor Education Group, Inc.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING? Did you know that American Crows, much like parrots, can learn to mimic a variety of sounds and words? Crows are known for their extreme intelligence and some have even been documented making and using tools! 🤯 If you’ve been to visit us in the last year, you may have heard one of our crows, Harvey, talking! Harvey has a pretty big vocabulary and he can often be heard saying things like, “what are you doing?” “Hello” “Hi” “Hi Harvey” “Good Boy” making kiss noises, and scream

Happy Freedom Friday! After weeks of dedicated care and rehabilitation, we successfully released two House Finches, a Rose-breasted Grosbeak, and a Black-and-white Warbler back into their natural habitat. One of the House Finches and the Black-and-white Warbler were brought to REGI after striking windows. The other House Finch and the Rose-breasted Grosbeak were cat-caught. Watching these vibrant birds take flight was a heartwarming reminder of the impact our collective efforts can have. Each bi

A video of our last loon admitted last night about 9 p.m. Our friends and volunteers Kevin and Linda Grenzer (Loon Rescue) were out from daybreak capturing and trying to capture loons off small ponds. Loons cannot get airborne off ponds without 1/4 to 1/2 miles of open water and will die there if not captured and taken to large lakes with open water so they can continue migration. Our regular admissions of owls,woodpeckers,sapsucker,and even a woodcock continue even as we are occupied with the l

It's #FreedomFriday again! Today, we are happy to share multiple releases from the past week. A Northern Flicker was brought to REGI after colliding with a window. After some time in our clinic, it is once again flying free! A Downy Woodpecker was the sole survivor of its nest after the tree its nest was in was cut down. As cavity nesters that prefer dead or dying trees, this species is especially vulnerable to the removal of trees. Always check before you cut, especially during nesting season!

This #FreedomFriday we are celebrating the release of an American White Pelican! This pelican arrived to REGI after becoming tangled in fishing line. Fishing line is a serious threat to our aquatic birds- entanglement of their bills, wings, or legs will cause them to be unable to fly or eat properly, and if not removed, is often fatal. The best way to prevent fishing line entanglement is to properly dispose of your fishing line and to remove it from the environment whenever you see it. Most fish

Pre-release examination of an adult bald eagle. This eagle was admitted with a very high lead level in early fall. With a level as high as she had she should not have survived. Forgive the spelling error...a middle of the night effort, but to change it we have to delete it and then all the shares go away. No time to worry about that today however...eagle captures going on. | Raptor Education Group, Inc.

Did you know that Great Horned Owls are known for their feather tufts on top of their head called "plumicorns,"? These are often mistaken for ears. However, they're not ears at all! These tufts of feathers are believed to be used for camouflage and communication. The owl's true ears are located on the sides of its head, hidden beneath its plumage, helping it hear with incredible precision. 🦉👂🌿 #wildbirds #wildliferehabilitation #antigowisconsin #raptor #education #enviromentaleducation #birds
