Here's our Eastern Screech Owl babies about a month ago.Now they have fledged but are still around. When we moved here we immediately built some simple owl boxes and they moved right in. They are common throughout most of the U.S. They love to eat mice and voles and they are just so cute!
Bethie they are soooo cute!!! I love owls - they're my favourite bird. Well done with the photograph - just perfect.
AWWWWW! I love babies of any kind!! They are soooo cute! Now I want to add owl boxes to my garden!! Thanks for posting the little cuties for us to enjoy!!
Looks like one huge body with four heads! Yeah they are cute but heres a secert about me.....Im scared of them.... they creep me out.
I didn't think of that Denee, but when I went back for a look it cracked me up because it really does look like one body with four heads!!!LMAO!!!
RFOL Pinkie I held off on posting because I was thinking the exact same thing. I can see how they may look cute but that photo gives me the shivers. I mean look at their beady eyes, just peering into your soul! And the fact that you mentioned that its like one body with four heads has helped...at all! {{{shiver}}} Sorry Bethie, not to detract from your post of course
LOL Thats funny! If you look at the pic....they do not! look happy about their pic being taken! Ive seen them (owls) in the wild. They will be perched up on a branch, watching me. >shiver< Its like theyknow. And it doesnt help when they call out into the night!!!! Makes me think that Death is lurking around!! And they are sooooo big!!!
I hit an owl (or should I say it hit me) while driving my truck. It flew right into the corner of the cab, just behind my head. Feathers everwhere! I had my window open and there were feathers inside the cab. Poor thing, but damn did that scare me! Yeah, they're big. And this one obviously hated Toyotas.
"When driving through a wooded area be vigilant for deer, hitchhikers and Toyota-hating owls! Also beware gun-toting squirrels"
