SAN DIEGO (FOX 5/KUSI) -- A baby Great Horned Owl, rescued during the recent winter storm, has been successfully reunited with its family in Bay Park, said a spokesperson for the San Diego Humane Society. The owl, found on the ground during the rain on March 12, was brought to the Bahde Wildlife Center by a Good Samaritan who discovered the nestling while out in the storm. After the young owl was brought to the center, the veterinary team at Project Wildlife conducted a thorough examination. Fortunately, the nestling showed no signs of injury, prompting the team to determine that the best course of action was to return the owl to its family in the wild, where it could continue to grow and thrive.
