The Lowe's at 144th and West Maple has been housing a special guest for the last couple of months. You'll never guess "who."

A six to seven week old Great Horned Owlet made a home at the store's garden center.

Since the store is planning to open the garden center this weekend, it called in the experts at Fontenelle Forest to come rescue the bird.

The experts say this kind of thing happens all the time because owls can have trouble finding a nest.

2. Well, he sure would make sure there weren't any rats or mice in the store.

Too bad he can't stay.
