This may be dullsville to some of you….but we are pretty pumped up that we have young owls again this summer. I’ve heard their immature screech for days, but had yet to see one this spring. Lo and behold, while hanging out on the back deck with our visiting friends, they got to understand exactly why we love it here.
Did you hear that? No sighting though until the next morning…..
Beautiful…no? Yesterday, it was too dark to get good shots of it, but we did a little dance with it…he rocks his head from side to side…we could swear he was mimicking us. I love them so….majestic, yet cute and fluffy in their juvenile phase.
Is it juvenile of me to squeeeee?
That thing is adorable.
Beautiful. I squeee as well.
I wish we had owls. We have a small pond and all we hear all night are toads croaking and they are sooo freaking loud!
Very nice photos of Owl. I need an owl here. Everyday, I look at my 1st 6×6 ft veggie patch ever in my whole life, and every day I see a different critter sitting on the edge of the veggie bed. Chipmunks actually live in the bed, there are squirrels, a variety of birds and rabbits all eying the food I am growing. An owl would be helpful to take care some of those critters who want to harvest as I do.
what cold-hearted lamebrain would think owls dull? you are soooo lucky! they’re gorgeous and i’m jealous. we have great horned in our neighborhood but never close enough to photograph — just the soft hoo hoo at night…
Just discovered you from Shelterific and love your owl. Wish I could see him dance with you!
