The state Department of Environmental Conservation said Friday that the incident happened on Feb. 21 in East Durham, about 127 miles north of Manhattan. The agency said customers at The Market Place spotted puffy, brown-and-white-colored owl perched with its eyes shut next to a cookie jar made in the shape of a chicken. The officers released the bird into a wooded area, where it flew into a nearby tree.
