  1. Up Close with a Tawny Owl

    At the PolskaEire Slavic Festival in Cork yesterday, owls were part of the festival, with kids getting a chance to hold one, much to their delight.

    The tawny owl, featured prominently in the foreground, is known for its distinctive “twit-twoo” call, which is actually a duet between a male and female—one calls “twit” and the other replies “twoo.”

  2. This tiny little Scops Owl needed waking up during our shoot he was so relaxed, I think the warmth of the light and the quietness in the room all helped, he ignored the flash completely! He lives in the rescue centre with the other birds I've photographed. #ScopsOwl #Owl #Bird #Raptor #OwlsOfMastodon #BirdsOfMastodon #Photography #BirdPhotography #WildlifePhotography #AltText
