Beloved Central Park Owl Barry Killed In Crash
HuffPost
"She took a chance on big city life and brought us so much joy, especially during this pandemic nightmare. RIP majestic Barry, the Queen of Central Park."
A year-old barred owl in Manhattan’s Central Park, a favorite of park strollers and birders, has died after apparently crashing into a park vehicle during a hunt for food. The owl, named Barry by her fans, appeared to enjoy all the attention she got and almost seemed to hold poses for people snapping her photo. “It is with a heavy heart we share that a barred owl, a beloved Central Park resident, passed away early this morning,” said a statement from the Central Park Conservancy. “Flying low, likely in search of a meal, the barred owl made contact with a Conservancy maintenance vehicle at approximately 2:30 a.m.” Friday morning.More Related News
