Congratulations, Arizona! Pygmy Owls Born In Captivity

Arizona started an experimental project in an attempt to add to the wild population of pygmy owls, but with no previous success.  However, some changes had been made to the nesting box along with better abservation seems to have made all the difference. Four pygmy owl chics have been born to two pairs of parents. They are the first pygmy owls to have ever been born in captivity.  Both sets of parents and all four chics are healthy and doing good.
