The other 10%

So after all the what makes my job harder than people think. I am going to share with you some photos of what makes my job worth it. Tonight we did 2 releases. Yes, I did say tonight. Meaning that with the good stuff comes an additional 2 hours aof work, but it was worth it.

So tonight we had an owl go back to South Beach were it was rescued last Friday by intern Kate and Seasonal Jessica. We were at redoubt around 6:15 at night and had a beautiful view for a release. And after many minutes or waiting... and then finally convincing the owl to come out by grabbing a towel and pulled out a bit.












The other release was our river otter! She finally got to go. Now she was very, very reluctant to come out of her carrier. I tried throwing things in front of her to get her curious about her surroundings; all this did was invoke a low growl (which is generally a sound they produce when they aren't quite sure of what is going down). Eventually with the the help of Shona, once again, we got her to vacate the carrier and once she did, she was off exploring and in the water and munching on something!






Back to feeding 7 new baby bunnies in the morning... oh joy.
