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.

This is Weird Alice from The Raptor Trust in northern NJ. Pic from their Facebook feed.
This is the first rapture sanctuary I visited. Stopped by on the way to a concert and had a great time. They are double netted here for their safety, so it's hard to get good pics, but it's a nice place for a quick visit. All kinds of hawks, owls, eagles and more here, plus a cute gift shop.
I don't blame poor Alice. It's fuckin hot.
this may be the best bird name of all time
Pretty good, but I’d go with Weird Owl.
Agreed. I was originally going to post their red morph screech owl, but when I saw one called Weird Alice, I knew I'd found a winner.
