I remember finding an abonanded nest in the tree, never an owl.

Don't know if this real or a tik-tok prank.

I happen to personally know two people who had hitchhikers on Christmas trees (an owl and a young raccoon). So it's plausible.

That said, anything interesting can always end up being faked for Tik Tok... Won't quote odds, because it seems like fake crap for social media is becoming overwhelmingly common.

Screech Owl. We had one years ago that my grandfather found in his pecan orchard. Injured, so he took it in. Made for a very interesting pet. Yeah, I know ... that’s not legal. We eventually let it free after it seemed healthy enough. It hung around for years after that.

If I had to guess, it’s probably someone pulling a prank trying to get attention.

It went four days without doing some hunting? Or maybe there were some mice in the home and it ate at night.

This is nothing. I’m going to make a TikTok video of the great white shark that was hidden in my fish tank for four days after I picked it up from the pet store. :-P

They put the lights on the tree and never noticed the owl?
