Had to go out in the freezing cold today, but it was worth it for this. There was a craft fair in the town square and the Raptor Rescue Centre was also there. They even had my favourite owl with them this time, so I finally got a photo that's good enough to share

I held a female Buzzard last time because Galadriel wasn't there, and I've held an Eagle Owl and a Barn Owl at other times. Maybe I'll try one of the smaller owls next time, there was a lovely little Scops Owl there today, a young Harris Hawk, a Tawny Owl, two Barn Owls, and another large hawk, but I can't remember what that one was. I took photos of them all. =)
The Raptor Centre is great, caring for injured birds that can't be returned to the wild and raising awareness. Birds of prey are my favourites.

That's one big owl, no wonder she nearly took you halfway across the square! How much do they weigh?
Reminds me of feeding the lorikeets at the bird sanctuary when I was a kid. There were so many perched on the end of my bowl that I though my arm might drop off (and they're only little birds!)

The weight mounts up when you've got a lot of birds, plus you have to factor in the weight of the feeding bowl and contents. I used to breed and show zebra finches when I was in my teens. They're tiny. My ex-brother-in-law bred budgies.

My old car will be taken away tomorrow, which makes me sad =(
