Longtime Greenwich Animal Control officer Stacy Rameor recently responded to Central Middle School on the report of an owl caught in the soccer ball net.
Needing a third hand to help rescue the Great Horned Owl, Officer Rameor was assisted by the principal of the school, Tom Healy.
Together they were able to untangle and free the owl, and after Officer Rameor examined the bird for injuries and didn’t find any, the bird flew out of her hands while a few classes of kids watching from the windows of their classrooms cheered!
