| | |  Chamber of Secrets owl Errol retires
The Shropshire Star Newspaper Online recently reported that Zeus, the owl who played Errol in Chamber of Secrets, has now retired to the country. He now entertains visitors at the Hoo Farm, near Telford, England. He was previously at Beck’s Bird Barn in Ellerdine, also near Telford, England.  Quote:
Mr Dorrell, who owns and runs Hoo Farm with his wife Carolyn, said: “We’re not quite sure how old Zeus is, but think he must be about seven. He is very good natured and just loves attention.
“We already had a small collection of owls, but not a great grey one.
“Because Zeus is so well trained he comes out every day for the children’s animal handling sessions and, having been in a Harry Potter film, he’s very popular.”

at least he's being taken cared of well, unlike some earlier reports of domesticated owls just being released into the wild and being left to die.

That's understandable, considering how it's been nearly 6 years since the CoS movie...
