The Spotted Owl, which goes by the name Zeus, apparently "saw the stars" before being given that name, because someone found it injured on their front porch somewhere in Southern California. It turns out that she is blind and her eyes look like a starry night. She quickly became a star, and today she is cared for by the dedicated team at the Wildlife Learning Center in Sylmar, California.
According to Zeus, to the Greek chief of all the gods, also the god of the sky and the storm, the owl got its name because of its unique eyes. If it is said that the eyes are the mirror of the soul, they are with it the mirror of the constellation. Since she's blind, the vets couldn't just let her out into the world after she recovered, so they made her a home by the desk Paul Hahn, founder of the shelter Wildlife Learning Center. Despite her blindness, she does not mind the proximity of people and allows herself to be petted curious visitors.
