Grumpy, the great horned owl, is finally getting a chance at motherhood.
The bird came to B.C. Wildlife Park in Kamloops in 2001 with a wing injury, most likely from being hit by a car.
For many years, she was on display with other owls, but when the other two owls in the enclosure paired off, Grumpy became a third wheel. After that, staff decided they wanted to try her as a foster parent for owlets. Until now, there wasn’t a good opportunity, but this year, the park took in an owlet whose nest was blown onto the ground in a windstorm.
