Oh my what big eyes you have!


This young lady got tangled up with some barbed wire. Her thumb feathers are a little messed up and she's got some soft tissue damage along the leading edge of her right wing but it doesn't look like anything is broken or torn loose. With luck she might make it - wish her the best or say a little prayer for her, she can use all the help she can get right now.

NAB :-)

Biggest pretty eyes I've seen in a while :-)

Sorry this lovely creature had a run-in with barbed wire. That can create nasty wounds. Sure hope she heals quickly and smoothly!

She is showing character on the picture most probably tired of paparazzi?

WOW!! What a beauty, Nab!!

How sad you had to meet her under such circumstances!!

She couldn't do any better than to be in the care of you and Nancy! I know she will do just fine!

LOVE those BIG eyes! SO alert!!

Love, Hugs and Scritches
