Here is a photo of Cedar, the Eastern Screech Owl we got to hold. Looks like cropping the pic got it past the Cloudflare error I’ve been getting.

It was even lighter than I imagined, but you could still feel his grip through the thick leather glove.

    It was a lot of fun, though I would have liked to hold one of the Eagle Owls they had as well. They were massive!

        Lol reviewing the photos it really feels like Cedar did not necessarily enjoy this.

        It never seemed nervous or frightened, and it ate its little treats for being good, but even as an imprint, that doesn’t mean it wants to have around people, it just doesn’t understand the actual threat level.

        Now, the Burrowing Owl I saw… That owl was the most pissed at me I’ve ever seen an owl so far!
