Snaps -Great Horned Owl hiding under bench

Snaps - The Great Horned Owl

We found this owl hiding under a bench in our shed and he seemed to be hurt and cold. We captured him with a fishing net and placed him in a bin and took him to the Audubon Society Wildlife Care home in Portland.
They checked him out and placed him in this cage with some yummies (dead mice)until they know he is OK.
We named him "Snaps" because he snaps his beak and puffs-up in defense.
