SANIBEL, Fla.- After moving into a small flight cage earlier this week, Ozzie is now perching off the ground and making short flights.

The Clinic for the Rehabilitation of Wildlife (CROW) says Ozzie does not appear to be stressed in his new environment and is eating well and enjoying the menu of rats and chicks for dinner.

Ozzie was brought to CROW after he was found injured on the side of a Lee County road back in March.

A series of x-rays revealed his shoulder and wing bones were severely fractured but they are healing well.

Ozzie should be moved to a large flight enclosure in the near future.
