Great Horned Owls
And now for something different.
Last night when Paul came home from the studio he asked me if I had heard the owls hooting. I was watching Mean Girls, so no, I hadn’t. We went outside to see if they were still there, tip-toeing over the ice patches so as not to scare them.

There were two of these beauties, each on top of a telephone pole, about 2 poles apart. They kept calling and responding, and I could see their white-patched throats. I heard owls growing up in Texas, but was never able to see them so close. I guess I’ll have to go outside at half past midnight more often!
Now I might have to make up some cute owls (like these and these).
