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.

    I don’t actual remember it blinking at all. I’m sure it did though. They’ve got that bonus eyelid though that you can see in today’s post in the one pic.

    The nictitating membrane is the clear eyelid that lets animals with one still mostly see while keeping their eyes moist and clean. I was glad that got caught in a photo.
