Fortunate’s story
This barn owl chick is the one survivor from a brood of 5 residing in a wild nest in Wetherby, Yorkshire. The opposite 4 perished because of a scarcity of meals – it has been a really moist yr for wildlife and the dad or mum birds weren’t bringing in any catches.. Earlier than being rescued, Fortunate had gone two days with out meals.
Gylfie & Dryer
Gylfie is an skilled barn owl mum and has raised foster chicks up to now, after I launched a rescued chick to her when she was on eggs. Watch her take to the function once more – she barely misses a beat when she discovers Fortunate within the nest.
Rehabilitation
This technique of rehabilitation offers the chicks the perfect likelihood of survival within the wild, since they’re raised naturally.
