Byron Bay Barn Owl

(say that 10 times fast)

A Barn Owl is wrapped in a steel blue towel, and held at the ankles by a rehabilitator. The owl's feet are in grab n' stab mode, with talons on one foot outstretched, the other in a ball. For now the human is unpunctured.

🦉✨ Meet one of our latest patients at the Byron Bay Wildlife Hospital – a beautiful Barn Owl. Barn Owls are not just a sight to behold; they play a crucial role in our ecosystem by controlling rodent populations. Their presence helps maintain a healthy balance in nature.

There are hands all over the owl, seemingly coming from all 8 cardinal and intercardinal directions.
