In Southern California, a blind Western screech owl was found injured on a porch one morning. With eyes that looked like a starry night, the owl caught the attention of those around.
After a visit to the vet, the owl was brought to the Wildlife Learning Center in Sylmar, California, where he found a permanent home. Due to his striking, large eyes, he was named "Zeus," after the powerful Greek god. Though blind, Zeus became a symbol of resilience and awe, drawing visitors with his majestic presence. His journey of survival and the beauty of his eyes serve as a reminder of the importance of wildlife care and compassion.
