I changed my pic today,,,this is a male Screech Owl that was injured. He had a droopy wing and one eye was closed shut and raw. We think he was hit by a car. We brought him to a Wildbird Rehabilitation Person who nutured it back to health as seen in the pic.
Soon he will be released back into the wild..

Aw. He's so sweet. I have an owl that hangs around. Hope he doesn't eat my Chihuahuas but they are gorgeous.

Glad you save the big eyed guy.

That is a wonderful Story! I have owls in the trees in front of my house, but have only seen the owl two times.

Love your story.
I wish the baby owl that flew inside our barn had had this luck. Oh well, he had a good burial.
