Growing Up

From Seaside Seabird Sanctuary

They grow up so fast! 🥲

We wanted to share a progress report on our young Eastern Screech-Owl patient! The owl is developing quickly, and has now reached the stage where it is perching and beginning to self-feed.

It never ceases to amaze us how quickly baby birds grow and develop - For many species of bird, the process of development from still incubating within the egg until they leave the nest as a fledgling is often less than a month!

We're excited to see this little one continue to develop and grow, and to soon be returned back into the wild!
