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.

Eastern Screech Owl. Sarnia, Canada.
Not sure if you all will enjoy this one or not, but it's got me picturing a giant owl emerging from a crater, possibly to fight or team up with Godzilla. 😁
He's about to fly straight up and then curve into a few circles making that released-balloon farty noise.
While deflating from comically large back to normal size! 😆
Love it, go Owlra!

I'd love to see an owl in actual Mothra style, with the glittery eyes and all that. It would look so adorable! 🥰
