"Ixonia’ Great Horned Owl update. We received numerous calls from concerned motorists about this very large female Great Horned Owl sitting motionless by the side of the road near the city of Ixonia BP Gas Station.

Thankfully, a dedicated worker from lxonia Utility safely contained her and assisted with transport. Ixonia is in very serious condition, as she was struck by a vehicle sustaining a significant concussion, a fractured wing, and is favoring her right side.

She spent the first 24 hours in Oxygen, and is now standing. Her prognosis is guarded, and recovery is long term.

We are currently experiencing another influx of patient admissions, including cases of West Nile virus, rodenticide poisoning, vehicle strikes, and illegal shooting. These cases demand extensive resources, including medical supplies, medication, substantial amounts of food, transportation, and more. ask for your support to consider making a donation via Paypal to help us continue our work. We have also updated our Amazon wishlist to reflect our current needs.

Reminder, we receive no state or federal funding and rely entirely on public support. Together, we can give birds like Ixonia a second chance. Thank you!

I left the gift link in as some of you said you were fine with that. I looked at the list, and most things are under $10 or $20, so it doesn’t take much to make a difference!
