What a hoot.

Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) came to the rescue of a little owlet on Saturday (April 25), when it fell out of its nest in Colorado Springs.

CPW Officer Cassidy English discovered the location of the nest, and was able to place the little one on the same branch.

The baby's mother kept a close watch on English from a neighboring tree.

CPW didn't identify what kind of owls these are, but we sure are glad they're back together.
