PHILLIPSTON, MASS. (WHDH) - A woman and her son rescued a tiny owl that was freezing on the side of a road in Phillipston.
A local rescue organization nursed it back to health and say the owl was exhausted and moving slowly.
They say it suffered head trauma, possibly from being hit by a car.
“It probably wouldn’t have made it because the temperatures had already plummeted, it was at night, it needed to get warm, it needed some time, it needed some recovery and a safe space more than anything,” Matt Lame said of Raptor Tales Rescue of Shrewsbury.
The owl is fully recovered and has been released back into the wild.
