That is pretty neat to see something like that. I had an owl get a broken wing once in my backyard and the thing was huge. Not sure what it was but they are so cool to see up close. Their eyes are incredible.
You are lucky with your fingers though. I had a pair of jersy gloves on and the owl clamped down on my hands and I thought I was going to lose a finger. Between the pressure from their talons and how sharp they were.
I think in your case he was too stunned to grip onto your hands. He looked a little out of it in those pictures.
