a great horned owl reacted overwhelmingly when she saw her rescuer after many days!

That One Person

Gigi got love and care from everyone in the center. But the one person that cared for her the most was Douglas Pojeky. He was renowned as “The Bird Whisperer” in his surroundings. The man instantly struck a rapport with her. He was deeply moved by her condition and so did everything he could to get her back to shape. 

Douglas Pojeky

Douglas is the president of Wild At Heart Rescue in Vancleave, Mississippi. He has been serving the organization for many years now. The man had a good bond with everyone but the connection with Gigi was a little stronger.

Day And Night

When everyone around had given up their hope on her, he was the one who decided to go ahead with his instinct. The man spent his day and night caring for the ailed owl. The selfless act of the man gradually began to show the result.

Budding Friendship

The bird too had opened up with him. She would like to spend most of her time with Douglas. The news of their amazing friendship reached every nook and cranny of the shelter. After months of pain and apathy, Gigi had finally found love and care.

Never Ever

Founder of Wild at Heart, Missy Dubuisson stated, “In all my years of working with birds of prey, I have never seen someone with such a bond with these magnificent birds.”

Getting Well

Gradually, Gigi began to show signs of improvement thanks to Doug and his confidence in her. Initially, it was difficult for her to pick the food from the ground and was hand fed. But now the bird was nursed back to health and was capable of grabbing food without anyone’s help.
