While out watching stinky birds, Äiti found this one. It is an owlet, a young suopöllö or short-eared owl, and it was just sat by the path and a little unsure of what to do next except stare at the camera annoying it.
Sadly Äiti did not pick it up and bring it home for us, although maybe that's for the best as its claws and beak were pretty fierce. Also, as it eats mousies, we don't want any competition from it.
That looks like an angry bird. It's a good thing that Äiti didn't bring it home.
ReplyDeleteNo, you don't want competition for your mousies! He may be young but he looks fierce.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I don't think I'd want to get near that baby owl!
ReplyDeleteI LURV owls, Viscount Veikko, but for sure, The Felocracy doesn't need any competition!
