Hacienda del Hooters
My wife and I were sitting out on a "park bench" we have in front of our house yesterday when she looked up into one of the birch trees we have there. She saw something and asked what it was ...
Ended up it was four young owls resting. Tried to get pictures and attached three. The first is one that had it's back turned while the other two are of the one most visible to us.
Boy, when we go to the birds ... we go for the whole dang flock of them.  |

I've loved owls for many years. At Chessington World Of Adventures recently, I saw this cute owl on one of those "demos" they do for kids, where they hold it on a protective glove. What amazes me is their lovely shape, and the way their face looks like it's been carved out perfectly with a knife.
Barn owls are my favourites.
