A few years ago, a lady living just across from the park here in Inman called us about an owl that had barricaded itself behind a planter on her patio. We caught what appeared then to be a young great horned owl, named it Ozzy and kept it in a box in the laundry room overnight. The next morning Joyce took it to the Hutchinson Zoo which has an excellent wildlife rehabilitation program. The lady there was amazed at what she saw. She said they are deluged each spring with young wildlife, most of which are injured, and many too badly to survive. But she took one look at Ozzy and told Joyce “You take this owl back immediately and turn it loose in the park near where it was found.” She said it was possibly the healthiest specimen they had ever gotten, and that its parents would find it and make sure it survived. After chasing Ozzy around the park, trying to get him to stay near the trees and out of sight, we left him there and sure enough, he disappeared on his own just as she said.
