HFD to the Rescue

This baby owl was discovered in the cemetery this morning. It had apparently fallen from its nest.

The Hudson Fire Department was summoned, with its ladder truck, to return the owlet to the safety of its nest.

Gratitude to Bob Tomaso for providing the photo and the story

Update: According to the Greenport Police Department Facebook page, there was no way to get the owlet back to its nest, because of power lines. Instead, it has been transported to a wildlife rehabilitation center, where it will be cared for until it is old enough to be released.
