what a great success story! glad to hear he's been rehabilitated. i remember fondly my local avian rehab center, and the owls there. some of them sadly weren't able to be released due to injured wings, but they were kept well and were mostly used for demonstrations and education. such amazing creatures.

We have a couple birds that are non-releasable. It is really great to see a bird that actually can be released

Yea, he is cute, but he had the personality of a rattlesnake.

Oh, I was just referring to how he was gray, had one eye, and that owls are supposed to be wise (though I know from your shows this isn't 100% true).
If you keep the name, that cool! I've never accidentally named a bird before. Why can't I think up good names when I'm trying?

Odin does seem to fit him a little better! This bird will be released soon, hopefully he remembers his name
