Magik the Kestrel

This is Magik. She is an unreleasable Kestrel. After being hit by a car she got permanent neurological damage and can't stand upright. So she lives her life upside down but is otherwise healthy. She has been there as long as I have been going to the Nature Center. Such a fun critter and a real sweetheart.

ooh, the poor Baby! So beautiful, though. Glad to hear she's otherwise healthy.

Poor little thing. Nothing that can't be fixed by cuddling.

Great photo Gus! They are spectacular animals. I am signed off to work with several Birds of Prey. It is a fun change of pace.
