GOLDEN VALLEY, Minn. — Baby owl season is upon us! Now is the time of year when several baby owl species are nesting in Minnesota. The Minnesota Raptor Center stopped by KARE 11 Saturday to share some owl fun facts and info on what you should do if you spot a nesting or baby owl in the wild: Owls have an estimated between 8,000 to 10,000 feathers covering their bodies. An owls' outer flight feathers are designed to allow air to pass through them, so their flight is silent. This helps them catch unsuspecting prey.
