Question

Read the following paragraph carefully:
1.One morning, my grandfather and I found a baby spotted owlet by the veranda steps of our home in Dehradun. When grandfather picked it up, the owlet hissed and clacked its bill but after a meal of raw meat and water, it settled down under my bed.

2.Spotted owlets are small birds. They have none of the scary appearance of large owls. They prefer to stay at home during the day as they are sometimes attacked by other birds, which look upon all owls as enemies.

3.The little owlet was quite happy under my bed. The following day we found another baby owlet in almost the same spot on the veranda. Only then did we realize that, where the rainwater pipe came out through the roof, there was a rough sort of nest from which the birds had fallen. We took in the second owl as well.

4.When I went to bed, they were on the window ledge just inside the mosquito netting and later in the night, their mother found them there. In the morning, I found she had left a mouse with its tail tucked through the netting. Clearly, she had no great trust in me as a parent.

5.The young birds thrived. Ten days later, Grandfather and I took them into the garden to release them. I had placed one on the branch of a mango tree and was bending to pick up the other, when I received a heavy blow on the back of my head. A second or two later, the mother owl swooped upon grandfather but he quickly moved out of the way.

Quickly, I placed the second owl under the mange tree. Then, from a safe distance, we watched the mother fly down and lead her children into the long grass at the edge of the garden.
