Just a quick post about something exciting that happened today.
We had an unexpected, yet very exciting visitor : A barn owl! I knew we had them here, but had never seen one. This lovely bird stayed with us for about 1h.
At about 3/4 of the time s/he was sleeping quite nicely. Seemed very content.
Look at the talons on this bird. Probably doing a good job eating mice/rats in the area. Good to have this bird around 🙂
At one point it woke up and realized we were looking. The bird looked right back at me.
Right before its graceful departure!
So that’s it! I was glued to the window the whole time taking pictures and marveling at this beautiful bird. I was maybe +-6ft away so it was a privilege to be able to observe from so close for an extended period of time. 🙂
