Bird Friendly Calgary

Thanks to one of our partners, Calgary Urban Species Response Team for rescuing this beauty after striking a window in downtown Calgary! Did you know a dedicated group of volunteers is out every morning (and sometimes afternoon) searching for bats, birds and other wildlife that has found themselves in trouble downtown from window strikes and other urban hazards? Pretty awesome team and this owl is but one life they have had a part in rescuing ❤️
