owlet

Saving an owlet (a great example)

Think back to the snow-covered quiet of mid-winter… did you hear the “hoo-h’HOO-hoo-hoo” of Great Horned Owls calling back and forth? And while the coldness of winter might prompt humans to wonder how animals can survive sub-zero temperatures in Wisconsin, Great Horned Owls are doing more than surviving: They’re nesting!

Here is a story of an unlucky owlet who fell from a nest but was lucky to have some knowledgeable humans lend a helping hand.
