On a job site and the guys are freaking out about this owl in the attic, tried to call pest control and animal control and no one will come out. I’m going to attempt to catch it with a towel. You can’t tell from the photo but he’s actually really small. image

I agree but the homeowner was not on board for keeping a pet owl in the attic. I gently caught him in a towel and he flew away immediately upon being released outside. I wish it well!
Wo, braver than I would be. I'm not scared of birds, per se, but when one's in the house I jump around like a girl when it comes to dealing with it. Mostly, or so I tell myself, because I don't wanna hurt it
It froze when I caught it. I was worried it would somehow find a way to peck me but it was chill. Very small, about 6 inches. Very powerful wingflap when he took off.
You don’t need to get the epic owl removed. You need new guys on the site who can actually get the job done even with this beautiful owl starring at them in a creepy way 😮🫂
May the odds be ever in your favor. I got attacked by an owl about 2 years ago. I don’t fuck around with those birds.
He is mining with your rig and playing an MMORPG with your internet plan. He rolled a human, because it’s fantasy game 😂 PD: Yes, I have weird ideas about things! 💜✌🏼

Looks like you just got promoted to wildlife control 😅 good luck with the tiny owl!
I was walking alone at dusk in the woods near my house and was apparently near its nest. I looked up and saw an owl. Thought that’s cool and kept walking. Looked up at a different tree and there was another owl. I thought, that’s weird and took a video of it and talked to it for a bit. Kept walking and saw another owl on a tree ahead of me. Immediately realized what was happening. It was the same owl and since it flies silently I didn’t realize it was following me. Then it dove at my face with talons out. I dropped to the ground, broke my phone and sprained my wrist. Got up and started running and it took another pass at the back of my head. I didn’t stop to look back.
