| Bubo was brought to the Center in 1990, after being hit
by a car in Falls Village. He is now missing one wing and cannot
fly. He has recently started hooting with the addition of his new
aviary friend, Baxter.
Baxter came to the Center in 1999. He also was hit by a car and is now missing a wing. Both owls frequent our education programs to schools and the public. |
