Long eared owlet fell from nest

2sounds · 2022-05-27 07:56:37

As title suggests found this little one on the ground this morning.The nest is very high so no chance of putting it back. Its very young and doesn't look injured. Any suggestions as what I can do. We have long eared owls here every year but this is a first. Sorry cant seem to attach pic at the moment
