長くても24時間も保たないエキノプシスの巨大な花
いつもの道を通っていたら出逢うことはなかった
今朝のミミズクさん
The gigantic flowers of the flying saucer cactus last less than 24 hours
Had we taken our usual route, we’d have never had a chance to admire them

Meet Narwhal, a Great Horned Owl, who was left him with a fractured wing after a vehicle collision. Although he healed, his flight is no longer silent enough for hunting, making life in the wild impossible. #wildlifeconservation #owls #GreatHornedOwl
そろそろクーパーハイタカも抱卵し始めたかな
2年連続で子育てをした巣を見に行ってみた
あ、いるいる

A great horned owl has claimed the very nest where a Cooper’s hawk couple raised their young two years in a row.

My Bird of the Day offering is this juvenile great horned owl. One of our neighbors knocked on our door and asked if I'd like some photos of an owl in their mimosa tree. I thought it would be gone before I could get to it, but it sat and watched me for an hour.

A big thanks to Harbor Mountain Brewery for inviting us to your Ren Faire this weekend! Narwhal the Great Horned Owl had a hoot, and so did we. We loved getting to share a bit about raptors with such a fun and festive crowd! #GreatHornedOwl #Owl #RenFaire
A bunch of doodles of a Great Horned Owl mama and pair of Great Blue Herons I'm monitoring. One is a very silly doodle of the owl knitting on her nest while the herons are lovey dovey. Also featured, vulture me in a giant sweater.
Can't stop thinking about my favorite bird neighbors 😆 I can't wait to check up on them again this week!

A #GreatHornedOwl is much, much larger than I'd expect. This one would rotate around some trees in my neighborhood in December, stopping to survey the lands it claims as its own.

Rare viewing of a great horned owl on the campus of the University of Michigan.
Nice day on campus,
but some owls are difficult
to please...so boring.

Owls Are Weird: Often-Overlooked Traits of Nature's Stealthiest Birds, Featuring the Great Horned Owl (Bubo virginianus) Transforming Talons! Great Horned Owls are deadly predators thanks in part to the crushing power of their talons, capable of exerting around 200 to 500 pounds of force per square inch. Their outside toe (3) is opposable, so they can switch from a zygodactyl (two in front, two behind) hunting posture to an anisodactyl (three in front, two behind) perching posture at will. Fun Fact! The ear-like feather tufts on this owl's head are called plumicorns. Surprisingly, they aren't the owl's ears! Real owl ears are on the sides of their head, similar to human ears. Facial disks around their eyes help to funnel sound in the right direction. What's the secret to their silent flight? Special serrated feathers on the leading edge and soft frayed feathers on the trailing edge help break up the "whoosh" of the wind. Tube-Shaped Eyes? Owl eyes are tubular, supported on the inside by bones called sclerotic rings. Their eyes are huge relative to their skulls, occupying around 70% of the skull's volume. This shape and size prevents owls from being able to turn their eyes in their sockets. Instead, owls have fourteen vertebrae (twice as many as humans) to allow them to turn their heads up to 270 degrees! Bibliography Lewis, D. (2015, June 25).

The Great Horned Owl turns its head to see the American Robin behind it.
And now there is just the Great Horned Owl perched on a branch in the foreground -- the Robin took the hint and flew off.
