I think I’ve heard this somewhere before 😂 I never realised how quickly they grew until I saw it, it is amazing.

Shhh! 😂 It’s insane, when you wake up on a morning and are surprised at how much it’s grown overnight

I find you videos very informing I grew up in the desert in Southern California. One day walking around I came across a baby owl. Who was too young to fly not sure what kind it was but not a barn owl. I took it home with me and raised it. I never intended to use it to hunt but I was doing the best I could to raise it did not know what to feed him so it was mostly hot dogs. I was always interested in Falconry and now I understand that here in the USA you have to be a falconer to keep an owl as a pet. I did get really attached to that bird so it was sad to me when I had to let him go back into the wild When the Harry Potter movies came out I remembered my owl. This is a stupid question but is there a record of anyone using an Owl to carry messages? Thanks Steve

That’s a very interesting story, thank you for sharing, no I don’t think anyone has used an owl for a message, it most likely would not make it to anyone after being sent

Can’t wait till the bird flu has passed and we can do some proper flying again!
