This precious moment was captured by talented wildlife photographer Hannie Heere the little owl was moving with purpose, then suddenly spread its wings and sprinted!
Before they take flight, young Barn owls build strength by walking and running around

I'm picturing it running like the T-1000 in Terminator 2.

A barn for owls is an owl barn.
Is a barn for Barn Owls a Barn Owl barn or a Barn Owl owl barn?
Is a Barn Owl living in such a barn a Barn Owl barn Barn Owl or a Barn Owl owl barn Barn Owl?

That is an Owl bear cub

Funny thing about my first play through, I logically thought to myself "I can abandon this poor cub out here...I'll just kill it".
It never entered my mind to try and tame it.
Not sure what that says about me now that I've said that out loud...

Don't they need to build strength in their wings?
Khanzarate@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 1y
They're gonna flap around too but nah this is leg day. Flying starts with a big jump. Especially when the wings are also new, you want as much height as you can when you start.
spykee@lemm.ee · 7 pts · 1y
Absolutely. That's why they spend their early years in huge barns.

As a Canadian gen-x I can only hear chariots of fire when seeing this.
