I really struggled to give a suitable title for this photo.
On Saturday morning, I saw this little owlet on the ground and in very vulnerable condition. There were several morning walkers in the park and my father and his friends tried to protect this little one.
When we first saw this little owlet, it was taking shelter on the ground next to a tree. It was weak and fragile.
We looked up and could locate another bigger owlet which must be the mother.
Nobody there had any idea what to do with birds specially this one and how to take care of it. The best thing we did was to take pick it and keep where there were sunrays coming to keep him warm.
But it stood up and moved back closer to the wall or tree again. We threw a piece of cloth around him.
I called several friends but I had to leave for home. By the time the "bird lover" was contacted me back, I was back home. On his request, I went back to check only to see that the baby was not there and neither the mother owlet.
I searched and I really hope best for this poor chap.
I know when the baby bird falls out of nest, its the end of the story !
I sincerely hope this didnt happen this time again.
