Alice, Rusty, Iris and the International Owl Center Blog: Patience Goes to Wisconsin
http://alicetheowl.blogspot.com/2013/12/patience-goes-to-wisconsin.html
Monday, December 16, 2013. Patience Goes to Wisconsin. I was getting very worried about Patience since her signal hadn't moved off the bluff behind the alpaca farm south of La Crescent for over a week. It was a weak signal to boot. Given that we found Patrick's tail feathers with his transmitter on the ground, that's what I was expecting to find for Patience too. It was snowing pretty good. We kept walking toward the far trees, and the signal was still faint.fainter than up on the road. I fin...So back t...

Alice, Rusty, Iris and the International Owl Center Blog: August 2013
http://alicetheowl.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 19, 2013. Rusty takes a Sand Bath. Good question. Perhaps it can help control ectoparasites like lice and flat flies. Or maybe it just feels good. No idea. Links to this post. I have absolutely no idea. I'm certain this sound has never been recorded or described before, so let's watch to see if it's only one owlet, all the owlets, if it's always given when they start flying, or any other details of what's going on. Thanks rose for catching this so many times! Links to this post. One of the...

Alice, Rusty, Iris and the International Owl Center Blog: June 2013
http://alicetheowl.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Saturday, June 15, 2013. I've been collecting and studying Great Horned Owl vocalizations since 2004, so there's not a whole lot I haven't heard (or heard of) before. But there's always more to discover! A few nights ago all the owls were spooked by something. All but Iris flew into the breeding pen and were alertly looking around. Iris was looking at something outside, and every now and then another owl joined her to look at the thing outside. I followed the owlet around with the PTZ cam, and eventually...

Wednesday, November 27, 2013. Although Rusty and Iris were successfully hunting and killing rats in the flight pen when the owlets were still there, mice seem to have complete and total impunity in the breeding pen. Here's a field mouse running around all over the nest again. Are these mice pets or what? Links to this post. Tuesday, November 19, 2013. Rusty and Iris' Happy Reunion. Rusty didn't fly much once he got up onto a perch, but he did hoot some, as did Iris. Links to this post. This one is Rhett ...

http://alicetheowl.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 08, 2012. The Cam and the Door. Alice has been using her pet door to get between her room and her outdoor patio since June. But we left the plastic flap off so she'd get used to going in and out. It's finally too cold and we put the plastic flap on. Would Alice push her way through? But would she figure out how to come back in again? The super exciting news is that we installed a new pan/tilt/zoom (PTZ) cam in the breeding cage. Woo-hoo! We opened the big eight foot door to make it easy t...

Monday, December 10, 2012. A Visitor from Norway. Roar Solheim was the keynote speaker at the 2011 International Festival of Owls. In Houston, MN. He came back to Houston in September of 2012 because he just couldn't get enough. In Kristiansand, Norway, where he is the senior curator. You've never seen a man so excited to find a road killed woodchuck. Mind you, Roar didn't sleep much. As I could spare the time here and there, I watch him prepare specimens. He had a variety of different techniques tha...
