Baby Owl Rescue in Gainesville Florida Guest Blog

From my friend and blog follower in Gainesville. Florida, Kristin F.

On Thursday a Mother owl by pool enclosure clearly distressed
Friday morning -Baby owl crying, huddled by tree
Called Wildlife Rescue
We have an owl (or two) who live in the trees around our house. We hear them all the time. We have an obnoxious crow that has been stalking this owl now for over a week. Is the crow after the baby? That’s sad.
Follow up….Wildlife Rescue came out. Used a wicker basket, put the baby back up in a tree. Mama watched the whole process. Stay tuned.

Thirteen Years ago my friend Shuey sent a photo of a Barred owl from Niceville Florida and was guest blogger click to see

In trying to identify what type owl this was I found this poster sold at Redbubble.

  1. Great photos, beautiful story. So happy Wildlife Rescue was able to help out. I have Hoot Owls around my house and enjoy hearing them.

    • Yes thank goodness for Wildlife Rescue. I wonder how the owl’s vary in Maine from the Florida owls.

  2. When I attended Florida Atlantic U in Boca Raton Fl they were the Burrowing Owls, that was before they had a football team. That mascot did not cause fear for opponents so they are now just the Owls. Not sure how much difference that made. Here in Cape Coral burrowing owls are very much in the news. Cute little buggers and people go to great lengths to protect them. I hope the little owl in this story is okay. dc
