Wow!
This large Bard Owl just flew into my window as I was having my morning
coffee.
He
was being chased by crows and was pretty badly dazed and hurt. It at first
looked
like
he had damaged his left eye but as you can see by the bottom photograph,
he
opened
it up after a few minutes after I had wrapped him in a towel and put him
in
a box.The SPCA has come by and taken him away to the Wildlife Rescue Center,
I
hope he recovers soon, what a magnificent creature
Update
The
owl, case #1381, a Bard Owl or Barred Owl, I found out, is still in veterinary
care,
suffering
from severe head trauma, on the good side it didn't break it's wing.
I'll
keep following his progress and update this post when I know more.
