I've got a python script running as a daemon (using someone else's

What's the best way to capture the output into a file for later
review?
Point standard out to an open file handle?
And stderr.
I don't know how the OP's daemon is being launched, but the crontab
command below worked for me for redirecting errors to a log file
without the need to modify the script.
python /usr/local/foo/bar.py >> /var/log/foo/bar.txt 2>&1
