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.

Met this curious Eastern Screech Owl at Raptor Weekend in Bristol, RI Audubon. Such a small bird with a big personality!
This is the third time I've come across this one. This has to be the strangest fake owl pic I've come across. What is even going on here??
Nothing special to see here. Probably just a hoard of sparrowhawks sitting in the treetops above plucking white doves for dinner. The GGO is just protecting the sleeping or unconscious woman from the rain of white feathers and downs. Please move on.
I like your explanation the best
Thanks
You're welcome
I like your creativity!
Thank you.
I feel like it was covering prey after a kill and got photoshoped into a corpse-like body in the snow. or whatever that white stuff is.
Either way... dun like it.
I feel this was supposed to be some Snow White or Twilight fanfic type scene, but it definitely gives me more crime scene vibes.
Most Twilight fanfics are crimes against humanity, so you're not that far off
My ex had me try to watch a few of those movies with her, but I was not able to maintain consciousness through any of them. I tried. None of the relationship options seemed particularly healthy anyway.
I've genuinely tried reading the original books, hoping it's the adaptation issues. They're not better
The model really does look a corpse.
It’d be an awful typecasting, like Walter Koenig playing ensign Chekhov
Koenig was seriously awesome as an antagonist in Bab5. Typecasting sucks.
She could always play Kathleen Peterson!
Typecasting is kinda crazy. You were sooooo good at this thing, that's why we can never see if you're as good at anything else.
It's hard to imagine Breaking Bad without Cranston at this point, and I thought Robin WIlliams (One Hour Photo, World's Greatest Dad), and even Adam Sandler (Punch Drunk Love), did good in their serious roles.
Seriously!
Definitely not me this morning fml
Screech Owls wouldn't make good alarm clocks.
Barn Owl is the way to go if you want to get up in a hurry!
But at what cost?
Neither party will ever be the same again!
