When the Little Owl got stuck in the Chimney

ByJon

This young Little Owl had a lucky escape, he fell down a chimney into the fire below. Fortunately the fire was not lit and he was heard by the occupiers. Being a log burner, he could easily be rescued from the his ordeal, by opening the doors.

After a few nights in an incubator under observation, ensuring he eat for himself, the very lucky Little Owl was fit to be released, back where he was found.

And, the chimney is having a chimney guard fitted to stop any more little creatures falling down.
