On October 24, two great horned owls, which had been orphaned and were rescued as babies by Verona resident Bill Kendall, were released into the wild at dusk. The owlets were the subject of an article, Chain of care leads to upcoming release, Sep 16/15), by Julie Druker. Several individuals and organizations, including Connie Black of Destined to Fly, in Yarker, and Sandy Pines Wildlife Centre, helped the owlets before they found a home at the Owl Foundation on the Niagara Peninsula, where they were raised to adulthood. On Saturday the owls were eager to be released. They both went in the same direction and flew into trees 50 feet apart before flying off for good.
