We raptors want to give a special "thank you" to all the folks working to restore electricity after the big storms that went through the Cincinnati area. You all are the BEST!

The pole and tree workers help us by:
1. protecting the electricity our humans use to keep our food,
2. rescuing injured raptors stranded in tall trees and on poles,
3. installing nest boxes for owls and nest platforms for eagles and osprey. (see the 2 pictures)

Thank very much and be safe. -Kentucky the Owl

It’s “baby bird season” with lots of young birds out on their own for the first time. Birds have different life expectancies, but for almost all species 75% of babies die their first year. This illustration compares some well known life expectancies.

Birds can be real fashion trend-setters.

Owls and some raptors get stressed in the heat. Owls are built for prolonged cold in winter with: layers of feathers, heat exchanging blood vessels, and feathered toes. So, summer heat waves can get us overheated and cranky. Our humans take good care of us so we're reminding folks to leave out some water bathes for the wild birds looking for a place to cool off. - from Kentucky the Owl (currently showing "irritable OWL syndrome")
