Bless these folks for helping the baby owl. So fluffy & cute!💕🦉💕 Baby is growing in the later parts of the vid, so these folks put a lot of love, time, & effort into raising this little miracle.
To those saying "him". If you look at one of the recent comments, it actually was a "her." The people in the video did what they could with what they had to help rehabilitate her. Under a lot of circumstances, the best you can hope for is familiarity and not "imprinting." Imprinting is what you see on a lot of owl montage videos where people either acquired them as hatchlings and raised them from such and treated them as pets, or rescued an injured owl who could no longer survive on its own in the wild. When you have a hatchling who hasn't opened its eyes yet, once it does it "imprints," on the first thing it regularly sees. Even most wild animals in that circumstance will become somewhat docile and "domesticated," (though not entirely) and with no lessons in surviving on its own become dependent on the "mother." Even typical pets like cats and dogs can do this. For example, one of my cats I get at an extremely young age not of my own choice. I opened my car door in a Wal-Mart parking lot and next thing I know this little bundle of fur jumps up inside, curls up in a little cat toy I never used and was going to give to Goodwill, and just looks at me and purrs. First time I take him to the vet, he's shielded himself in my arms while the vet talks to me and is queuing off my reactions to the vet to gauge how he should act. I only know this because the vet called my attention to it. Ever since, he's been fuzzy velcro. The people in this video really should be commended for doing what they could to rehabilitate the owl with what they had and try to keep their distance. In a later comment, they mention that *she* is now living independently around their house and has reproduced on her own, but while being *familiar* with them, keeps her distance. Which without the benefit of a nearby raptor facility, is the best you really can hope for in terms of making sure the animal stays alive but can fend for itself.
Indigo Dancer I really couldn't tell you, I'm going off the comment of the poster of the video. Like I said in my comment, if you go through the comments you'll see the poster replied to someone else calling the owl "her." As I myself have no experience with owls, and certainly no close up experience or access to any experts who would have the experience to know far more than me, I'm going to take the comment of the person who had at face value.
@@indidancer8109 the only sure way to tell is by a blood test but with birds of prey females are usually 25-33% larger then males but owls arent as pronounced as other raptors
Late comment but females usually have a dark facial disc (circle around the face), that’s a way to tell if it’s male or female if you don’t have the pair of owls to tell the size difference
I had the good fortune of tracking two owlets and the mom and dad from April to August in 2009. What an education I received. The biggest treat was realizing that the mom or dad took turns watching the babies and would use my back yard as a respite spot when the adults needed alone time. Only one parent would show up. It was funny we all need alone time. I witness the stages of their growth all the way to witnessing the parents teach the young ones how to fly in and out of the trees into the fields and back to the tree. It was awesome. At one point all 4 were in the same tree. The owlets always together were on one branch looking at me and the parents on another branch also looking at me. Priceless photograph of the entire family. I felt so bless. Thank your for this video it brought back all those memories.
This is illegal unless the person is licensed with their state to raise wild birds. The bird is likely imprinted by humans and will not do well once released. This is wreck less and cruel.
I think it's amazing that she was able to reproduce. Despite being raised by humans, she still had enough of her basic instincts kick in to mate with a wild male owl and with his help, she successfully found enough food for her fuzzballs to eat. Now those two clutches she and her male mate successfully raised went out into the world to raise their own young. That is truly a success story in my book!
I fished a place in New Jersey calling round valley. There was a big owl I never got a look at. The owl was very talkative. It was an incredible experience. I’m 64 now and miss those days. You don’t know what you have until it’s gone. What a Beautiful friend you have there.
Awesome job of documenting this experience! Great video! Thank you for rescuing this stunning owl, who's still out there somewhere living his or her life thanks to you!
To have a wild owl just fluffing itself in a bath in your back garden... amaaaazing. I was out at a local marshland in Kent U.K. today watching short eared owls hunting.....x
I stumbled upon your channel. This little owlette is the epitome of cuteness overload. I adore them. The bobbles. The eyes. The glares. The fluff. The squeaky vocals. The attempts to fledge. Oh geez so kool. Sorry for the other dying. This one surely is feisty. Very kool to see. Lucky you.. tysm for the beautiful footage. Made my day..
Love ,Love it being a night owl myself , a few years back on a early spring Nebraska morning along side the Mighty Mo River I walked up on a huge Great Horned Owl (probably female due to large size) eating a bird she never missed a mouthful , speaking softly I just eased back & away snapping photos, few days later I went back gathered up the remains taking them to a Conservationists ( Game Warden) finding out that her breakfast was a Red Tailed Hawk NOTE to left of this comment is one the photos of her as my thumbnail
I know this video was from 2014, but I was wondering how long the baby hung around. At least it was smart enough to hang around where it knew someone would feed it. Thanks for being that person. 🦅❤🦅
I remember seeing one of these for the first time in NWT in whiteout driving conditions. It flew from bumper height right over our station wagon and scared all of us.
What a beautiful animal and for the little mess that it made when it was a a baby is a small price to pay for when it's full grown and takes care of the rodents . And my neighbours think I'm a nut because I put a bad house over my garage nature is a beautiful thing and if you can get them to hang around did they take care of the pests I'm all for it good for the people that raised it😍👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
How would you like that guy staring at you all night long he's funny what a cutie how wonderful it must have been to be able to raise him or her what a wonderful opportunity and I hope that they are out in the wild now being able to be the owl that they are thank you for all that you did
Thank you so much for sharing this awesome video! ❤️ and thank you for caring and loving this beautiful creature, definitely could see he or she’s personality. Lol,,,hope all is well with Mr. & Mrs. owl , seeing it’s been awhile since video was uploaded..🦉
I would've never thought owls enjoyed lil birb baths 😂👍
You did a great job with this baby. Thanks for sharing!
One of the most beautiful birds of prey and simpatetic!! ❤😊

The eyes of an owl are soo innocent
One of the CUTEST babies. EVER.😍🥰❤

It's very hard to found out if an owl is a him or her. How do you know this is a her?

Nature...is amazing. What a beautiful bird. Great video. I enjoyed it very much.
God is amazing!
This is illegal unless the person is licensed with their state to raise wild birds. The bird is likely imprinted by humans and will not do well once released. This is wreck less and cruel.
This isnt a natural video. Having wild life being raided demesticated doesn't make this a nature video.
So much pleasure watching this!
Such a beautiful bird! Great video and great job.
These are special birds and you're special people! Thanks for your kindness and thanks for sharing your special story!

- wonder where they found food for their fuzballs. Osprey nests with babies ? Sorry I don't like them.
sohrab rustum, they are eating mice probably.
My goodness people! Humans kill animals and eat them. So why is it bad when an owl does it?? Its just a way of life. Ever hear of a food chain?
How do you know the rest of this story? I look down this man's channel in couldn't find any further information.
@@indigenouspotliquor3546
I'm wondering the same thing????
So much for the little flower 😍. Grew up to b beautiful. Bathtime.
I fished a place in New Jersey calling round valley.
There was a big owl I never got a look at.
The owl was very talkative.
It was an incredible experience.
I’m 64 now and miss those days.
You don’t know what you have until it’s gone.
What a Beautiful friend you have there.
"he's blaming it on the hose..." 🤣
Beautiful mother nature. Thank you very much for this visit. Love this. 😘😘😘
*stretches wings* aww *stretches them more* so cuute * fountain of shit sprays out* EWW WTF!
Small price to pay to keep chipmunks rats and mice away
what they aren't telling you is that crap stinks reeeeal bad. But they do look cute!
...Making space for the next meal.
its and owl they dont shit.
Don't kink shame the owl
So sweet. I've watched this video several times.
Awesome job of documenting this experience! Great video! Thank you for rescuing this stunning owl, who's still out there somewhere living his or her life thanks to you!
So beautiful!! The detail of his face, his eyes & everything about this owl is beautiful!
He is just beautiful, adorable and so mischievous

Great video. Baby birds with their down feathers - soooo cute. Thanks for taking care of this baby.

Very well done. You honor your guest. GBU.
Beauty fluffy baby owl 🤗💕

Much respect to those who care for and love these amazing creatures.

This is toooooo adorable. Bravo for you for looking after this baby!!
The owl is cool and all, but look at that beautifully mowed lawn.
Hmm. His eyes weren't open but maybe he imprinted on you.
Well thanks for taking care of him. I hope your feathery bundle of joy makes it.
it's very amazing of you to take care an owl voluntary like this because I know it's super hard to raise one even the littlest one.. 😊😊
Hannum Siswaya it is illegal
And harmful to the bird
