I told the Great Horned Owls to line up for a family picture and they all fell into order!!! Hahaha that’s the joke of the century. Great Horned Owls do what they want and never what you want! This just happens to be how I found them this morning!!
Why is the left one separated? All the others are right against each other, then a big gap and one last one.
Gregory has eaten the mouse she had called dibs on, so she’s not speaking to him right now. That said, she didn’t want to be left out of the picture.
Well Gregory is just a meanie then…
Not keen on the others. Wanted to be in the photo though.
Looks like a school photo with that one weird kid no one really liked because he had a constant odor of cat pee.
Owls have notoriously bad noses. Many will come in smelling of skunk because they don’t notice it themselves, putting skunk on their already extensive menu.
I didn’t know that?!
Yes indeed! It usually doesn’t bother them unless they get it straight in the eyes. Then they might need help.
There’s a nice exhibit in the Carnegie Museum in Pittsburgh of a Great Horned hunting a skunk. The photo I took i think is better, but I found this one quick on google. It’s a very nice display.
Love the Mike Nelson-esque look of confusion on the skunk.
Honestly didn’t know that, that’s interesting. Makes sense but never really thought of it.
Sometimes a weakness can be a strength in the right circumstance!
Being difficult is practically an owl’s job, at least when it comes to humans. 😅
Are we all present?
Present and accounted for, ma’am!
I prefer a Robot Roll Call, but I’ll take it. ;)
