On Monday, April 17 CROW received two baby Igreat horned owls. The nestlings were found at Presidential Court in Fort Myers. Jim Coleman, a resident, had seen one of the little owls on the ground on the Friday before. He didn't want to interfere, at first, and took no action. On Monday, however, when he noticed a second baby owl on the ground, he called GROW. If the two owls had been fledglings, then it would have been appropriate for them to be out of the nest. But veterinarian PJ Deitschel said this is very difficult to determine over the phone, so usually CROW brings the birds in and checks them at the clinic; if they are in fact fledglings, then they are returned to the original site. CROW volunteer Richard McCormick made the trip into Fort Myers and picked up the two owls. It turned out that they were both nestlings.
