Reggie The Burrowing Owl: The True Story Of How A Family Found And Raised A Burrowing Owl

The story you are about to read is based on true events that happened some time ago--the late 1960s to be exact. I began writing these events down the day my son brought a baby burrowing owl home. Reggie as we called him lived with us for about a year and a half and never ceased to amaze us. The burrowing owl is just one of natures many extraordinary and beautiful creatures. Obviously a burrowing owl ought to live in the wild and not in captivity. But what else can you do when a lost and helpless baby burrowing owl chick arrives at your doorstep? Well Ill tell you that and more. This is the story about how one little orphaned burrowing owl brought five children and their parents together on a mission to care for him as best they could. And in doing so learned that--theres no such thing as an ordinary day with a burrowing owl around. Though our days revolved around Reggie it is the unique way Reggie impacted our once ordinary lives and those around us which makes this story so special. I hope you will find it so as well.
