The reaction to the Rockefeller Christmas tree's reveal this week was ... less than enthusiastic. But its scrawny exterior hid a very small, very cute winged stowaway.
A petite Saw-whet owl that had hitched a ride inside the soon-to-be Christmas tree when it was cut down in Oneonta, New York, this week.
The owl, nicknamed "Rockefeller," is recovering at a wildlife facility about two hours from 30 Rock. Rockefeller was discovered during tree transport, according to Ravensbeard Wildlife Center. The wife of an employee for the company that gets the tree to Manhattan called the center to report a "baby owl" in need of help.
