Woodsy Owl’s Solar Eclipse Tips

For a fun, safe, and environmentally friendly viewing experience on public lands

Yes, yes, not a real owl, but I saw this and thought it was fun. Many of us in the US may remember Woodsy from our childhoods. For you guys somewhere else, Woodsy’s catch phrase is “Give a hoot, don’t pollute!” He is the somewhat less heard from mascot mentor for the US Forest Service, where Smokey Bear, the forest fire prevention mascot bear, is probably a bit more popular.

Since these guys manage to not be annoying or creepy for mascots, I thought I’d put this up here for fun.

Are you looking forward to the eclipse, coming on April 8?

Have you watched a solar eclipse before?

Do you know any other owl mascots?

    Saw the one last year, and several others in previous years. One suggestion, get a piece of lace material, and hang it up where the Sun can shine thru onto some other surface, it looks really nifty.
