OK, just saying it now. This isn't going to lead anywhere good.

Just curious as to your thoughts against it. It didn't sound like this was going to be a regular thing and doesn't come from donations to the instance, but from the admin themselves and nothing goes to an actual user.
I see it as something nice to the community, especially for ones that have a specific cause, and the grand prize isn't so much anyone should get upset about not getting it.

!remindme and other spam where humans should be talking doesn't drive discussion.

His legs are quite long for such a little bird.

If you find an injured owl:
Note your exact location so the owl can be released back where it came from. Contact a licensed wildlife rehabilitation specialist to get correct advice and immediate assistance.
Minimize stress for the owl. If you can catch it, toss a towel or sweater over it and get it in a cardboard box or pet carrier. It should have room to be comfortable but not so much it can panic and injure itself. If you can’t catch it, keep people and animals away until help can come.
Do not give food or water! If you feed them the wrong thing or give them water improperly, you can accidentally kill them. It can also cause problems if they require anesthesia once help arrives, complicating procedures and costing valuable time.
If it is a baby owl, and it looks safe and uninjured, leave it be. Time on the ground is part of their growing up. They can fly to some extent and climb trees. If animals or people are nearby, put it up on a branch so it’s safe. If it’s injured, follow the above advice.
