Tiny Owl Recovering At Wildlife Rehab Center After It Was Found Inside The Rockefeller Christmas Tree
A tiny owl has enjoyed a lucky escape after he was discovered by a worker helping to prepare the giant Rockefeller Center Christmas tree in New York.
The owl, now named Rockefeller, was discovered on Monday dehydrated and hungry but otherwise unharmed, said Ellen Kalish, director and founder of the Ravensbeard Wildlife Center where the bird was taken.
Kalish said the bird is an adult male Saw-whet owl, one of the tiniest of the species. It was taken to a vet on Wednesday and got a clean bill of health.

She said the plan was to release the owl back into the wild this weekend.
