You're talking like I'm going to keep the damn thing. I can't just find some owl nest outside and put it in there? Wouldn't it be better to let actual owls raise it?
They're likely to reject it. I agree releasing it is the wisest course, but you'll need to take care of it until it's able to look after itself. And you'll want to do so in such a way that it doesn't become dependent on human care.
It is currently 1.3 grams and will be a bit over 10 grams fully grown.
[Compared to the stuffed animals this seems to just be a harmless baby bird. It doesn't deserve to be rejected by other living things just because he's bad with animals.]
Okay, fine. What else do I need to know? What does it eat?
Shit, that's tiny. It must look even more absurd than this owlet.

Owlets are uniquely absurd, believe me. This wren check is just terrifyingly tiny. I just keep staring at it.

Nothing nefarious. I've always liked birds.
