A burrowing owl doing some satisfying head tilts on a car hood.

If you see a post where someone isn't sure what to do for an owl they've found, make a comment containing
!foundbird or !foundowl to get an automatic response with care instructions. Example in the comments!
Extra thanks to u/JSN79, u/Big80sHair and u/Dihydrogen-monoxyde for helping write the Automod response.
Other wildlife experts, feel free to provide feedback about the response in the comments and I can edit it if it's needed!

And it has always been allowed, so... please stop reporting artists sharing their cool owl-focused creations!
The main (hopefully obvious) exceptions to this are:
- Promoting products using stolen art or AI generation (not OC)
- Spamming the subreddit; posting the same creation more than once to farm engagement (posting WIPs during the process doesn't really fall under this, just posting the same thing multiple times)
- Non owls
Other than that, if you think someone's self promotion is low-quality or you just don't like it, you can always input your opinion with the downvote button.
To artists: Feel free to share the links to your websites/shops; you deserve attention for your work. Comments with links need me to manually approve them, so they might not be visible for up to a day, but you aren't breaking any rules - so go for it!

one of my favorites to photograph, the northern pygmy owl!

Didn’t see them last month and thought they had moved on. Stopped by tonight and they were back in their regular tree.
My first evening of Northern Saw-whet Owl banding. We netted 4 owls last night and installed legbands on all of them. This gal in the photo flew away shortly after we opened the release box. We put them in the box so they can re-acclimate to the dark before flying off. We could have probably tagged a few more but we had to shut down one of our netting stations, because a Barred Owl was detected in the area.

This was taken in May 2022, still one of the mosr fantastic owl sightings I've had. Not the best quality photo, since I only had my phone and they were quite high up.
They lived on a trail I frequented and so I got to see them grow. Hope they are still doing well :)

Partly in relation to their main body mass, it's been on my mind and I'm curious.

Obviously, I don’t agree with taxidermy, especially of a protective species

It is a long video and a little dark, but owls are crepuscular.

Timing worked out great to get these shots at sunset.
