    I’m boycotting this for you excluding Archimedes, the owl from Sword in the Stone!

        I never saw this until a few years ago, just missed it somehow as a kid so I watched it one day. For a cartoon owl, I feel they nailed the attitude pretty well with this guy.

          It’s based off the first section of the book Once and Future King by T. H. White. An amazing book, can’t recommend it enough.

      This halftime show accepts walk-ons fly-ons. An upvote is an upvote.

        Next year you should do a full out fictional owl bracket. That would be cute and v fun

          With all these extra owls that people are posting I just might. I didn’t realize I’d left so many out.

            What until the Guardians of Ga’hoole people show up!

            Owls have been such a great symbolic and mythological creature for just about every civilization for tensnof thousands of years. I thought 250 real owls was way too many! 😉

            And then the year after that, pair real owls with fictional owls for a 2v2 bracket

            Soon the superbowl will be asking you to do an ad spot on the far more popular seasonal event

      So true. ✊🏽

      …flying is not merely some crude, mechanical process. It is a delicate art. Purely aesthetic. Poetry of motion. And the best way to learn it is to do it.

For owls that are superb.

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.

For more detailed help, see the OwlPages Rescue page.
