“The indignity I shall endure for being misidentified as a dangerous, venomous slithering creature”…

We collected this fluffy little owl at Sibanye-Stillwater’s mine offices near Marikana this afternoon. She was found by staff walking around their workshop this morning.

Just as well, as she’s just skin and bones. It happens often with these juvenile Spotted Eagle Owls. They can find themselves in areas too far for their parents to locate and feed them.

We’ll rehab and release her back at the mine once she’s old enough to care for herself 😉
