Owl Scream Social

August 23, 2007 by Dunrie

Young Bald Eagle

Guy invited us to his house tonight for an ice cream social. He had all the usual trimmings: chocolate sprinkles, almonds, various ice cream flavors (strawberry, vanilla, and chocolate), chocolate syrup, neighborhood kids, and raptors.

Ummm…raptors?

Yup, raptors.

A woman from the Leslie Science Center brought a kestrel, a barred owl, and a juvenile bald eagle. All the birds were injured (kestrel, owl) or imprinted on humans (eagle) and so would not survive in the wild. The birds were wonderful. The day reminded me of the amazing Raptor Trust in New Jersey. And, of course, the Onion article about owls.

You should have heard the birds in the nearby trees all twittering away “Do. Not. Want.”

    No Austrians. Just raptors, runners, neigbors, and us.
