MARYLAND–Wildlife experts from DNR, The Maryland Zoo in Baltimore, and Tri-State Bird Rescue and Research released a rehabilitated female snowy owl on the beaches of Assateague State Park on December 11. The team has been caring for and working with the bird since she was found with a wing injury last March in Baltimore. Before her send-off, the owl was outfitted with a small tracking device so her travels could be chronicled through Project SNOWstorm.
The owl, now referred to as Delaware, was initially banded along the Delaware Atlantic shore last December and presumably spent the winter somewhere in the mid-Atlantic region.
