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.

Re-edited a photo which I've posted almost 7 years ago. Editing softwares are so advanced now, even mobile apps are more than capable of doing a good job. Ran thru both Photoroom and lightroommobile to get the final result.
closest species I've seen to KG from OoC so far
"Do you need to see more Superb Owls?"
Yes <
No
Thanks for the earworm
ooh, yup, that could stick around.
to be clear, I am still humming that tune 5 hours later hahaha
I just woke up with something playing in the background of my consciousness.
Took me a while to realise it's this what's playing and that I earwormed myself
haha, i'm still humming it myself. I actually just started Echoes of Wisdom the other day though, so it's fitting.
Loving the Furby vibes
That is remarkably similar! 😮
