At about 1pm today Ms Harvey is calling up a storm and I go back to see what the problem is. There on the ground is Winkin. This is what owls do when they are not quite able to fly. They end up on the ground. Two years ago we put one back and he jumped again, so we left it to nature. It made some three days sitting on blow downs and then finally flew enough to get back in the trees.
So we are standing our ground and letting the owls do what owls do in the wild. Some times you just have to trust nature. We are watching and learning and some days that is so very hard to do. It will be a long night here at The Feather
