What Kind of Owl "Recovery Center" is This?!
From Montana Wild Wings
Speaking for all of us at Montana Wild Wings Recovery, Oliver and Newton wanted to sincerely thank Tito's Vodka for their generous contribution. We will use the contribution to further our education program which Oliver (northern saw whet owl) and Newton (northern pygmy owl) are both a part of. Thank you!
Tito's not only makes great vodka but it also supports a lot of other worthwhile organizations and projects - check them out here.
It looks like Tito's is a continuing sponsor of the work at MTWW and a number of other pro-animal organizations. Good for them!
Here's a display from last year showing thanks for a previous contribution. I like the idea of putting the display feathers on sticks for easy handling and ID. I'm going to have to steal that for my open house display.
Also crazy to see a Saw Whet and Pygmy together. I've only seen a Saw Whet's eyeballs peering at me from a dark corner so I've never seen how tiny they are, and to see a Pygmy Owl next to it makes them seem reeeeeeally small.
SWO: 20 cm, 7 in, 80 g, 2.8 oz
