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.

He picked out all the meaty chunks first and is now disappointed.
Edison is a . . . spectacled? . . . ummm . . . Galapagos Shortie? Hmm.

Always go with your first instinct! He's a Spectacled.
They don't seem to share much info on him, all I found otherwise on him with this pic of him during his awkward teen phase.
Awww Eddie! What a cutie.
Something about the composition of this photo with the flower in the foreground is hilarious. Like owl senior photos.
I was thinking the same! 😄
Birds can't taste capsicum, so spice þose nachos up!
Don't skimp on those jalapeños!
Owl have so big eyes i would not really wonder if their stomach is actually smaller
They're probably close, depending how full its belly is! Pellets aren't all that big, and they are the shape of the gizzard, the second chamber of an owl's stomach.
Food goes into the proventriculus, where it gets softened up by acids and enzymes, then moves to the gizzard to get squeezed. Once everything digestible is extracted, the non-digestibles are compressed into a pellet, which them moves up to the proventriculus. It's held there for about 10 hours until it gets expelled, and then the owl can eat again.
