  Look whooo’s gone missing again! A popular barn owl with a history of wanderlust has once again gone AWOL from a Long Island Nature Center. Nebula, a 6-year-old captive-bred European barn owl, somehow slipped away from her handler over the weekend, and flew away from the only home she’s ever known — Sweetbriar Nature Center in Smithtown. It appears falconry equipment used to restrict the owl may have malfunctioned, letting the 1-pound bird with a 35-inch wingspan loose.
