This snowy owl was injured on barbed wire at the State Prison, and was found bleeding with a broken wing. The prison was very nice and accommodating in letting our team in to rescue him, and the awesome people at Radnor Veterinary Hospital are miracle workers, placing a pin in the fractured wing bone so that it could heal properly for the bird to fly again...especially since this bird will need to make his way back to the Arctic Circle by next spring! We'll make sure he's fat and ready in time. Dig it: snowy owls, usually the juveniles, are occasional visitors to PA in the winter, travelling from the far North.
