B

I work with Volunteers for Wildlife, a rescue and education organization at
Bailey Arboretum in Locust Valley. Trying to help injured, displaced or sick creatures
can be heartbreaking; survival is never certain. However, when it works, it is simply
beautiful.
I got a rescue call from a woman in Muttontown. She had found a young owl
(猫头鹰) on the ground. When I arrived, I saw a 2-to 3-week-old owl. It had already
been placed in a carrier for safety.
I examined the chick (雏鸟) and it seemed fine. If I could locate the nest, I might
have been able to put it back, but no luck. My next work was to construct a nest and
anchor it in a tree.
The homeowner was very helpful. A wire basket was found. I put some pine
branches into the basket to make this nest safe and comfortable. I placed the chick in
the nest, and it quickly calmed down.
Now all that was needed were the parents, but they were absent. I gave the
homeowner a recording of the hunger screams of owl chicks. These advertise the
presence of chicks to adults; they might also encourage our chick to start calling as
well. I gave the owner as much information as possible and headed home to see what
news the night might bring.
A nervous night to be sure, but sometimes the spirits of nature smile on us all!
The homeowner called to say that the parents had responded to the recordings. I drove
over and saw the chick in the nest looking healthy and active. And it was
accompanied in the nest by the greatest sight of all — LUNCH! The parents had done
their duty and would probably continue to do so.
