When we arrived at the Rochester Quarry Hill Nature Center, the staff transfered the owl from our laundry baskets to a larger carrier for the trip to the Raptor Center on the St. Paul campus of the University of Minnesota. When we arrived at the Raptor Center, the staff rushed the owl off for evaluation. About an hour later, as we were traveling home, they called with an update. They felt the owl was female and that it was suffering from starvation. They stated that this is very difficult to reverse, but they would indeed try. We are to call for an update in about 3 days. We will keep you posted.Saturday, March 17, 2012
