If you find an injured owl:
Note your exact location so the owl can be released back where it came from. Contact a licensed wildlife rehabilitation specialist to get correct advice and immediate assistance.
Minimize stress for the owl. If you can catch it, toss a towel or sweater over it and get it in a cardboard box or pet carrier. It should have room to be comfortable but not so much it can panic and injure itself. If you can’t catch it, keep people and animals away until help can come.
Do not give food or water! If you feed them the wrong thing or give them water improperly, you can accidentally kill them. It can also cause problems if they require anesthesia once help arrives, complicating procedures and costing valuable time.
If it is a baby owl, and it looks safe and uninjured, leave it be. Time on the ground is part of their growing up. They can fly to some extent and climb trees. If animals or people are nearby, put it up on a branch so it’s safe. If it’s injured, follow the above advice.

Well I'm glad I'm able to capture your attention for a bit each day. My main goal is to get you a little more focused on the world around you. There are so many living things out there we don't personally know about or pay much mind to. But the more you get to know that hidden world, hopefully the more you will care about this world as a whole, and you'll seek positive change in how we treat the Earth.
Thank you for the very kind words. It means a lot to me that all of you take the time to see what I have to share, and especially when you take more time to comment. It's easy to scroll on, but when you take an active roll, no matter how small, you are helping build community.
