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.

Tristan & Isolde are a Eurasian Eagle Owl couple that are followed by a webcam. The area unfortunately also has raccoons. But I'm hopeful that the new location is safer and they are able to raise some chicks.

Experience the fascinating world of eagle owls up close with the live streams from our eagle owl webcams! Immerse yourself in their natural habitat and observe their breeding, foraging and many exciting behaviours in real time.

Lol I've been daydreaming about if for the last month as the blackbirds have been storming my feeders and cleaning them out.
