!foundbird or !foundowl to get an automatic response with care instructions. Example in the comments!
Extra thanks to u/JSN79, u/Big80sHair and u/Dihydrogen-monoxyde for helping write the Automod response.
Other wildlife experts, feel free to provide feedback about the response in the comments and I can edit it if it's needed!

Mod post: Self promotion is ALLOWED if it's OC
28
Upvotes
And it has always been allowed, so... please stop reporting artists sharing their cool owl-focused creations!
The main (hopefully obvious) exceptions to this are:
- Promoting products using stolen art or AI generation (not OC)
- Spamming the subreddit; posting the same creation more than once to farm engagement (posting WIPs during the process doesn't really fall under this, just posting the same thing multiple times)
- Non owls
Other than that, if you think someone's self promotion is low-quality or you just don't like it, you can always input your opinion with the downvote button.
To artists: Feel free to share the links to your websites/shops; you deserve attention for your work. Comments with links need me to manually approve them, so they might not be visible for up to a day, but you aren't breaking any rules - so go for it!

Lived her 17 years and this is the third time seeing an owl. There was no missing their massive shadow overhead as they flew into the tree. Made my entire year.

Middle TN Raptor Center hosted a free event at Wild Birds Unlimited. It was amazing. I’d never been so close to an owl. It was intimidating with some of them. I also learned a lot of cool new things!
Great horned owls love to eat skunks but a skunk spray directly to the face can kill them!
1. Eastern screech owl
2. Great horned owl
3. Barred owl
At the event they also had a red tailed hawk and a kestrel.
