Woman Found A Baby Owl And Had A Beautiful Disney Moment
Sometimes a simple walk turns into a tiny rescue mission, and this woman ended up in the middle of one after hearing a strange sound near the road. She had already been watching a cat cross safely when something else caught her attention, and that detour led her to a baby owl in trouble.
What happened next was unexpectedly sweet, because the little bird seemed to calm down the moment she held it close. It is the kind of moment that feels straight out of a Disney movie, and the photos make it even harder not to smile.
Now the baby owl has the internet talking, and the story only gets more charming from here.
Robertson told The Dodo:
“I heard what I thought was an injured squirrel. I followed the sound and found a fluffball in the wildflowers.”
It was a small eastern screech owlet.
“He was still close to the roadside. I looked around for a nest or tree hole but couldn't see anything. He was quivering a lot, and I was worried about a head injury.”
Robertson took the owlet to a friend. She placed him in a box because she was afraid of touching him too much.
“He kept trying to climb out of the closed box. When I checked on him, he would jump onto me and sit happily on the seat belt or my shoulder.”
“I'm sure he was just cold, but he did stop shivering when he snuggled into my cheek,” she added.
That is about as adorable as rescue stories get.
It reminds us of the woman who found an abandoned baby animal and stunned everyone with how fragile it looked.
Robertson dropped the baby owl off at a rehab facility, and after a night in an incubator, his health improved. Once he gets stronger, the owl will be safely released back into the wild.
