They can act so childish!
That’s exactly it, it seemed like childish little fights, they weren’t going for the kill, just pissing each other off. It was somehow both interesting and entertaining.
I have to be honest, this sub motivated me to keep trying until I found them. Always happy to share the love of owls with others 😊
Happy new year anon! Thank you so much for all you do for this instance, this sub wouldn’t be what it is without you! Will be looking forward to more owly goodness in 2026 and hope you have a great start to the year!

Hey anon, if you ever find yourself in the east of France during winter or some reason, I know a spot ;) what I found interesting was one or two birds would turn their heads to follow you with squinted eyes, while the others stood still. I’m guessing they might take turns as lookouts? I hope you get to see one live soon, they’re really charming fellas.
I keep meaning to do a post on this small Serbian town that gets taken over by them every year and they can have over 100 in a single tree. It must be amazing!
I’ve seen a video by a photographer about this place. I would love to see a post on it here!
Sad little screechy didn’t win but happy for the Buffy owl’s win. They’re all winners in my heart after all ❤️
Whoaaa that’s amazing, beautiful picture!! But also - noooooo my baby screech is being robbed (˚ ˃̣̣̥⌓˂̣̣̥ )
It’s a real nailbiter!!!
Smol! Fierce! Makes a great burrito!!
What more would it take to make a superbowl??
Oooh those guys are on my list! So pretty (and clearly tasty too).
That duck must be exceedingly scrumptious judging by the face she’s making. Worthy of the finest french bistros.
I can’t not vote for the Saw Whet, the flesh is willing but the spirit is weak. However the Blakinston’s fish owl is certifiably superb (the largest living owl!). To make up for my sins, here are some *more cool facts about a hella cool owl:
Both. I want both and everything in between!
Anon, this needs a photo of their teeny tiny ears ear tufts. The people deserve to know!

This one is no-contest for me (LEOs for life!), though the dusky is pretty darn cute.
What??? Snowy owls have tufts??? My day just got 100× better, that is absolutely adorable
Thank you! They’re so charming, a really owly looking owl 😍
Aaah wonderful!! Their tiny ears are to die for :) I won’t hesitate to post if I get the shots, really crossing my fingers it happens. Good luck to you ik your coming owl searches as well!
Hoping to see and photograph some short eared owls this winter break. Wish me luck folks!
