This Screech Owl injured his leg quite badly after getting it wedged in the gap of a tree. Thankfully there was no fracture and the rehabilitators at Hobbitstee Wildlife Refuge expected he would recover.

Laser treatment is when vets/rehabbers target soft tissues with certain wavelengths of light. Reportedly this helps reduce pain and inflammation in their patient's injuries, and stimulates healing. From my very cursory search, the efficacy of light therapy is a spicy topic and research is ongoing. Here's a link to a metastudy https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9951699/

We had to shift servers when the one we were on got deleted without warning a month ago. We lost our 4000 followers and had to start from scratch, so it would be a tremendous help if you could boost this or tell someone you know about Owls in Towels! Thank you everyone for your continued viewership and engagement 💛🦉

Think Wild posted a juvenile Northern Saw-Whet Owl noting she was well-flighted and eating live prey. A week later she was self-feeding and hunting crickets, with mouse tests next 🦗🍴 Want to donate to Think Wild Central Oregon? https://thinkwildco.org/donate/ Source: https://fb.com/1254796830014700 #owlsintowels 💛🦉

A Pygmy Owl had a close call with a car window. And although "a bit dazed from his wild ride" he soon got the all-clear from the Dove Lewis team in Portland, Oregon.

A Tawny Owlet came to Suffolk Owl Sanctuary starving but after a bath and careful feeding he began to improve and gain weight. He also had another clutch mate to recover with.
