This Great Horned Owl was shot in the head with a BB. He is recovering from an eye injury and fracture from being shot. Most often, when we admit birds of prey that have been shot, it has been done with BB guns and pellet guns. Anyone caught harming or killing a bird of prey faces fines and possible jail time.
Help our mission of returning these birds to the wild where they belong!

These two don’t know it yet, but they are cleared for release as soon as the snow melts! We like to make sure it is as easy as it can be for them to hunt upon release. Birds of Prey Foundation is beyond grateful for the support of our extended community as we work to return injured raptors to the wild! Thank you so much and Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Every summer, the young Swainson’s Hawks amaze and delight us with their combination of toughness and goofiness. This little guy was well enough to move from our ICU to an outdoor flight cage today. If all goes well, he will join a kettle of other youngsters and they will fly to Argentina together in the fall! In the meantime, they are all eating a ton of food to ready themselves for migration.

It’s officially summer at Birds of Prey - we received our first baby Cooper’s Hawk of the year over the weekend! He/she joins many other fledglings in our care, including Great Horned Owls, Red-tailed Hawks, American Kestrels and a few Common Ravens. They are all keeping us very busy!

This formidable fledgling Great Horned Owl fell out of its nest in early March, when it was only a few days old. We paired it with our foster mama owl as soon as he got strong enough to hold his head up on his own. Now the two are out in an outdoor flight cage, which has a custom set-up for baby owls. They will soon be joined by the rest of the Great Horned Owl babies we’ve received for care until they are all old enough for release.

We are hard at work prepping for our busy season, which starts ramping up with the arrival of baby Great Horned Owls. They could start arriving any day, now!

Enjoy this photo of some Northern Saw-whet Owls we cared for in the past. The juveniles have stunning dark plumage (left) and grow into the lighter adult plumage. These are one of the smaller owls in Colorado, and they nest in conifer forests.

If you’d like to help us take care of the sick, injured, or orphaned birds in our care, please visit Birds-of-prey.org/donate to find out how!

Happy New Year from the Birds of Prey Foundation!

This Northern Goshawk moved from ICU to our outdoor flight cages last week - we are hoping that he will fly free again in 2024!

We at the Birds of Prey Foundation hope this holiday season finds you as warm and snug (and as well fed) as this Flammulated Owl who is overwintering in our care. Thank you for making our work possible through your support!

Meet the Common Poorwill! These nocturnal, migratory insectivores aren’t raptors, but people often think they’re owls and bring them to us for care. These 3 will be over-wintering with us as they came in after they should have already been much further south.

For those of you following the saga of the injured Northern Saw-whet, here he is in the rafters of an outdoor flight cage, where he likes to roost during the day.
