New Year’s Eve

New Years Eve patient 1257 arrived at 7PM tonight. Lucky and I retrieved this Great Horned Owl from Lakeland Drive, after getting a call from Roanoke County Dispatch.
The owl is resting comfortably after the initial exam. Trauma to the head, eyes and right shoulder were noted.

Great Horned

Great Horned is not happy about the burrito wrap and medication soon to be given.

Cooper’s Hawk

Cooper’s Hawk scheduled for release tomorrow morning. The patient’s concussion following an impact with a window in Roanoke City proved to be minor, resulting in a brief stay with us.
