Cute poor lil Barn Owl lost at sea.
Thanks for rescuing!!

I designed the typefaces to suggest the meaning of the words. “Parliament” is in a gothic script. “Owls” has an owl eye for ‘o’ and the remaining letters are feathered. The owls are, right to left and top to bottom: the Eastern screech, Northern saw-whet, long-eared, Barred, Great Horned and the American Barn owls.

One of the local owls visited here last night to inspect the hedgehogs feeding.

Barn owl / Kerkuil (Tyto alba) last night. got some great shots. One of the juveniles also showed itself! Hopefully in the near future the other siblings will show up before the camera as well... 🪶 #Birds #birdphotogrpahy #owlsofmastodon #kerkuil #barnowl #tytoalba #juvenile #owl #uil

Video of the #barnowl looking out of its house, doing its morning scratches and yawns before getting ready to hunt.

Went out yesterday with my buddy to the #barnowl spot in our area. Unfortunately the farmer was mowing the field right behind the shed, so it was a lot later than usual before the owl showed its face. Still managed to get a good shot!

Brown and white barn owls hunt differently in bright moonlight. White owls oriented attacks toward the moon in bright moonlight but not in dim conditions, supporting a hypothesis that they use their plumage to startle prey. Brown morphs did not show the same variation in preferences.

While getting soaked by the unscheduled rain on my fake commute this morning I at least spotted “my” barn owls. Let me tell you, they seemed even less impressed than I was.
Wouldn’t have seen that if I were driving.#FakeCommute #JustWalk #LowCarbonBirding #Birding #BarnOwl #TytoAlba #NotADuck

💁🏻♀️ TIL: A barn #owl can catch a #mouse in a completely dark room using only its sense of #hearing.
The secret lies in its #feathers – reflective facial disc feathers focus #sound into asymmetrically placed #ears, while serrated wing feathers muffle noise mid-flight. Engineers at #Siemens are now mimicking owl feathers to make quieter #windturbines.

🚫🦉 Oh, the elusive #secrets of the barn owl's plumage lie just beyond our reach, hidden behind an iron curtain of access denial! MIT Press, protectors of #knowledge, have once again saved us from the peril of learning. 🤷♂️🔒

I went back with my camera this morning and it turns out that it was a bird standing by its nest rather than one roosting that I saw yesterday - fortunately with a lot of zoom at my disposal and not having left the verge of the fairly busy road I can be confident that I didn’t disturb them as that would have been bad.
Edited because I forgot the important tag #NotADuck

Today’s morning walk meant I got to spot a roosting barn owl. Wouldn’t have seen that if I were sat in a metal box on wheels - another reason to much prefer an active #FakeCommute to an actual commute in the car.

Bonsoir le Fediverse : en ce moment je travaille à faire du stock pour une exposition à Pirou (Normandie) au mois de mai aux côtés de mon compagnon forgeron coutelier (www.la-forge-asgeir.fr). Mais pour vous faire patienter, voilà une chouette effraie réalisée il y a quelques temps déjà pour continuer à vous présenter mon travail de sculpture sur bois. Douce soirée ✨ Lucie
