“I only had to take my sons two minutes up the road, drop them off, and then came back to where the owl was,” he said. That’s when he called Candy Gallant who runs P.E.I. Wildlife Rescue and Rehabilitation to help him capture the injured bird. “I’m nearly 70 and not very spry anymore. We walked what felt like a mile through snow until we got to a tree where we could not find the owl.”
The owl eluded their first few capture attempts, but Gallant was eventually able to seize the bird when it reached a lower-hanging branch.
