A homeowner in Exeter New Hampshire made a phone call to a chimney sweeper to remove an animal that was trapped inside of a chimney. Merrie Sweepe Chimney Service employee Kyle Ware answered the call to come to the home of where the owl was inside of the chimney. Kyle believes that the owl was stuck inside of the chimney when he was able to rescue the owl and the owl outside of the home. The owl was inside of the fireplace when Kyle was able to save the life of the owl. After the owl went outside of the home, the owl could not fly. The owner of the home did take the owl to a rehabilitation facility in Exeter where the owl will be brought back to health before the owl can released into the wild. in the near future.

this is the second time I read about an owl getting stuck on chimneys. I wonder why those owls go to chimneys. Good thing they were rescued

The same news source mentioned that an owl was trapped inside a chimney in Ohio.

Another successful rescue. I guess they go in chimneys because of the darkness. That is just my thought. So this time chimney sweep is the hero.

@Deepizzaguy That makes more sense than what I said.

I think owls fly into chimneys due to their inability to see in the dark.

It was probably injured prior to becoming trapped in that chimney, lost its balance and was unable to fly out of it. Or, maybe the owl broke something while trying to escape.

Most likely an injury or the other scenario that you shared here.

I'm glad he could get the owl out of the chimney and he will be helped at the rehab center in Exeter.

The owl most likely could not see the chimney in the dark.
