Why Owls Can Be Super Heroes - Just Sayn'

It's Purely Animal - Issue No. 36 - Petting A Baby Owl

You may remember my post from August, "An Owl As You've Never Seen It Before," if not, i highly recommend it.  It's a pretty darn cool video.  But this video I spotted on the Daily Mail, is simply adorable.  I've had a fascination with owls since I was a child and used to collect owl memorabilia growing up.  This video has surely peaked my interest collecting them once again.

From The Daily Mail:

And- unintentionally tapping into the passion for the curiously cute birds of prey-this incredible footage has clocked up nearly two million You Tube hits in two days.

The expression of bliss on the face of the adorable infant, as it gets a refreshing head rub from its unseen lady owl-keeper is pure magic.

An Owl As You've Never Seen It Before

The video you're about to see is absolutely stunning.  It was taken using a Photron Full HD High Speed Camera SA2, and the images will blow you away.  The shots are of an Owl flying towards a camera at an amazing slow speed, and it looks as if it's coming at you.

Ryan collects piggies, for piggy rights, and I collect owls, because I think they're a fascinating bird.  I've collected owls since I was a child, but Ryan on the other hand, started collecting piggies when he read my post, Concealed Cruelty.  In it was a video of piggy abuse that forever changed his life, and ever since then, he's been piggy rights this, and piggy rights that;  I don't even cook with pork any longer.

Fortunately for me, the only thing close to Owl abuse that I have ever seen was in "The Legend of the Guardians" when the evil Pure Ones kidnap some young owls and make them their slaves.  Just horrible!
