Finally got to make a return visit to the first owl rehab I visited. The Raptor Trust is a nice medical and rehab facility in northern NJ.
It's a great facility to look around, but picture taking is absolutely terrible. They have very fine netting on all the enclosures. Most of my pics look like this, no matter how hard I tried.
I'll share a few I got where you can actually see the birds. The post picture is of the most beautiful Barred Owl they had, Sonny.
This GHO had some huge plumicorns!
This owl was very much indicating how it did not like this heat! It was panting hard and did not look to be enjoying itself. This was the first animal I saw when I got there and the last when I left, and it had this intense, wide eyed look the entire time.
