      Have you ever been alone at night
      Thought you heard wing flaps behind
      And turned around and no one’s there?
      And as you quicken up your pace
      You find it hard to look again
      Because you’re sure there’s some owl there…

      (Ooo…ArtBot actually did a fairly good job this time! I can’t decide which came out best.)

      It is. They are not small and easily hidden like a lot of the owls. This is the longest (though not the biggest, they’re mostly feathers) owl.

      I’m somewhat surprised the little beak stands out as much as it does. I’d think it would be a darker color. It is pretty cute as it is though!

      Good call, I didn’t think of that one!
