    This is Katniss, a six month owl Barred Owl.  Last spring, she was blown from her nest by a tornado that passed south of Bowie, Texas and fell into a pond.  A rancher found her struggling in the water, scooped her up in his cap and called Wild Bird Rescue of Wichita Falls, Texas.  They raised her, trained her to hunt and today, will release her to join the other two known Barred Owl's on our ranch.
    Katie, Director of Wild Bird Rescue of Wichita Falls, hands Katniss to Carrie for her release.
    The handoff is tricky as Katniss is eager to be free.
