Fresh hemlock branches came down in my driveway during the last round of storms a few weeks ago. In what may have looked like debris to some people, I saw raptor enrichment. The birds each received a branch as a natural perch, a new place to sit with a new texture. Aldo took some time getting used to his new mew decorations, but finally decided to give it a close inspection!
Carson was not so shy with her perch. After just 2 days, she had stripped off all of the twigs and shredded them. She even stashed a few on top of her hutch, perhaps saving them for later!
