Took another trip down to the Applegate Zoo in Merced. I'm really starting to love the Owls. They just don't have a care...kind of like a cat...except I'm not a cat person, even though I have two cats at home!

I had to laugh at that one! You're definitely a CAT person.

The first sign is denial! :lol:

Very nice catch Mike. The patterns these owls can knit using just feathers is simply fantastic. Never seen anything like this one. Very trippy and I bet it makes them hard to see in a birch tree. :)
