MAX, the great horned owl

Missing Max: Great horned owl flew away

A feathered friend to many children in Santa Barbara is missing -- and his caretaker hopes the public will help in the search. Max, an 8-year-old great horned owl that has thrilled elementary school students for years through the Audubon Society's Eyes in the Sky Education Program, flew the aviary Wednesday night and hasn't been seen since.

He flew away in the La Cumbre Road area. If seen, contact Gabriele Drozdowski - or the SB Audubon Society or call the SBWCN 966-9005; they surely will contact her.

After all these years in captivity, can he feed himself?

UPDATE
NOV 14: Max was found approximately two and a half blocks away - and was reunited with Gabriele, a happy reunion for both owl and person, according to the story in today's Santa Barbara News-Press, available online only to subscribers.
