Peregrine Falcon

This little girl came in as an abuse case. But now, she is healed and getting better every day.
If you look at her feet/talons, you might see the damage and scars...and the "zip tie" used to "band" her. It has since been removed!!

I had a chance to get a few photos. (usually I am working and rarely take the time to get a few shots.)

Her name is Blanche Devereaux because she is one sexy Golden Girl!!!

I did nothing... It was the director of the clinic: Gerda, who did her magic on this beautiful bird!!!
