Animal rescue! The @VCFD handcrew helped save this injured Great Horned Owl from the #MariaFire. The owl was taken to Wildlife and Environmental Conservation Inc. and is already on the mend. Check back to see our video with an update.

Update: The crew bamed the owl “Ram” after their favorite NFL team and their own mascot. @RamsNFL

I have a few #DenaliDiaries to share before I wrap for the season. In episode 6 I stan an owl nest and discuss the secret to their quiet flight.
Here is mama great horned owl in her nest. Isn’t she beautiful?!
Great horned owls usually use old nests that were built by other birds like red-tailed hawks, ravens, and crows. So not to plug too hard here but, yes, crows actually contribute to the creation of usable habitat for other birds.

NEXT UP from the CAT-e-GORY division: 1-seed Sea Lion vs. 5-seed Tiger Owl (narration co-written with @TCastanea) #2019MMM
Tiger Owls, aka Great Horned Owls, occur throughout the Americas & are well suited for many habitats from sea level up to 11,000 ft. They live in forests, grasslands, deserts, swamps, marshes, & mangroves. (Smith 2002) #2019MMM
Tiger owls also adapt well to human ecostystems & can help control pest populations, but are sometimes killed when humans use poison on owls' rodent prey. apnews.com/9766f9f7d94045… #2019MMM

NEXT UP: Great horned owl 🦉 (Bubo virginianus; 5) vs Panther chameleon 🦎 (Furcifer pardalis; 12)! #2019MMM
The great horned owl (Least Concern), AKA "the tiger of the air". Despite being in the Fam Strigidae, early naturalists called it the tiger owl due to its tiger-like stripey barring. Extremely adaptable, it has the widest range of any true American owl. #2019MMM
Of House Great Horned, this owl has the most diverse prey profile of an raptor in the Americas.

They are able to take down prey that weighs ~14lbs (~29 stoats), which is nearly 3x its own weight (4.5lbs or 9 stoats). sora.unm.edu/sites/default/… #2019MMM #StoatsAsMeasurement #WePrey owl house emblem we prey
