SELFRIDGE AIR NATIONAL GUARD BASE, Mich.— Megan Baker, a wildlife biologist with the U. S. Department of Agriculture, assigned to the 127th Wing Safety Team here, handles a snowy owl before relocating it on Jan. 7, 2020. Baker captures, tags and safely relocates aviary wildlife in the vicinity of Selfridge as part of the Air Force’s Bird/Wildlife Aircraft Strike Hazard (BASH) program. Snowy owls migrate to this area as a Southern retreat, finding themselves at home on airfields because it’s open and flat - like the arctic tundra from which they came.
