On Dec. 18, a citizen brought an injured or sick owl to FFPD Station 3. The man had seen a pair of large, yellow eyes staring at him from vegetation alongside the trail that runs through Falcon. Upon discovering the injured bird, he picked it up and brought it to the nearest fire station.Firefighters contacted Colorado Parks and Wildlife. The owl was kept quiet in a lidded box until a CPW representative arrived. CPW made arrangements for the owl to be transported to a raptor rehabilitation center.
