Isis the leucistic red-tailed hawk

Isis was brought to the raptor center as an immature bird in 2004 after being found on the ground in Bethel, OH with a gunshot wound to her right wing. The injury caused severe damage to the wing and prevented her from being able to be released.  Isis is a leucistic hawk with blue eyes and very light colored beak, cere, and talons. Leucisim is a genetic mutation that prevents pigment from being deposited normally. Isis is 19” tall, weighs 2.5 lbs. and has a 48” wingspan.
