EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from October 1985, we witness a heartwarming moment between Detective Neil Perry and Ossi the tawny owl. The injured owl had unfortunately broken its leg after colliding with a window during one of its graceful flights. Thankfully, Detective Perry, a registered keeper of wild birds in Clowne, Derbyshire, came to the rescue. The image showcases Detective Perry gently cradling Ossi in his hands as he carefully sets the bird's limb in plaster. His expertise and compassion shine through as he tends to the injured creature. Despite being taken into custody for its own safety, there is an undeniable bond of trust between these two beings. Nature enthusiasts will appreciate this snapshot not only for its aesthetic appeal but also for the glimpse it provides into wildlife conservation efforts during the 1980s. The vulnerability captured on Ossi's face serves as a reminder that even majestic creatures like owls can fall victim to human-made obstacles. This photograph invites us to reflect on our impact on nature and reminds us of our responsibility towards protecting all living beings who share this planet with us. It is an endearing portrayal of resilience and care amidst adversity—a timeless testament to both man's kindness and nature's enduring spirit.
