An Owl Family Comes To Visit

I know this blog is supposed to be about my kitties but the most amazing thing happened over the weekend. A family of 5 eastern screech owls (2 parents and 3 babies) hung out in my neighbour’s backyard for two days! It was one of the best nature experiences I have ever had (the cats weren’t nearly as excited because I pretty much ignored them for 2 days!) Here are some photos

What an incredible once in a lifetime experience!

I promise the cats will be back next week!
