Poor little birdie.
Earlier this week, a bummed out owl was rescued after getting its wings stuck on a barbed wire fence in Colorado.
The Fremont County Sheriff's Office shared photos of the incident on Facebook, which shows the progression of the rescue. According to the post, deputies were dispatched to the scene after a kind passerby reported the stuck owl.
