sore little owl

I went south today to look after grandies.....(Nanny took another friday off....) I had a lady bring me an injured owl found in the front grill of a big truck. Still very alive, bright, eating but had 2 broken legs. On the way home I dropped in to let our vet have a look and make a decision. I presumed the worst, but because it was young, healthy and she has the skills I ended up helping her operate and stabilise both fractures. This blip is a hammock we have set up so its legs can hang with no weight on them for a couple of weeks. Looks very cute, but seems happy. All we can do is take one day at a time and hope.
