Just a few photos from my Owl Encounter yesterday. My hubby had given this to me for my birthday back in July but this was the first available time to do it. I had a fabulous couple of hours and would recommend it without hesitation!
"Ed", the European Eagle Owl

He looks fearsome, doesn't he? Here is the owner of the owls, Sally, with her very favourite boy, just to prove otherwise!

I am embarrassed to say I can't remember what sort of owl this is ..... she is new to the collection and although probably fully grown is not completely mature yet.

This is an Asian Wood Owl, and like the previous bird is a new member of the collection. She is still a young 'un and her plumage is still developing.

Here is the lovely little Moon, a grey phase Tawny Owl, which was my favourite.
