(Top right) Jim Parks of Wingmasters holds a Great Horned Owl during a live owl show at Forbush Memorial Library on Wednesday, Feb. 21. Parks is a licensed raptor rehabilitator and all the birds of prey that he brought with him were handicapped as only injured birds of prey can be held in captivity.
(Bottom right) Parks bends down to let the children watching from the floor get a closer look at the Eastern Screech Owl. He told the crowd that there are four or five different owl species found in Westminster.
