Mangalore, April 5, 2013 :  People who passed by the Town Hall in Mangalore  on April 5, Friday, were surprised to see a rare  guest.  It was a barn  owl (Tyto Alba) which was seen on the steps of the Town Hall. Helpless it was as its wings were injured and it could not fly.

Also known as the White Owl and quite rare in the city, the innocent creature was waiting for some help to come its way. The Town Hall cleaning staff led by Raghunath, the contractor, rushed to its aid  and took it to the pet care clinic at Shaktinagar.


The suspicion is that some  sharp object might have hit the wings of the owl while flying. Raghunath said once  the bird is treated for its injuries it will be handed over to Pilikula authorities.
