Mom, are you up there???? I've seen owls rotate their necks 270 degrees horizontally, but I've never seen one look up so far that their face appears to be upside down. This recently fledged baby barred owl had its back to me and was looking up to the parent that just flew in and landed above it.

Yeah he's done

Wow. So that's what's wrong with that head. Just stick it in a horror movie. It belongs there.

I almost down voted you out of reflex. This is such an "oh you" situation.

There are cave paintings of owls with their head backwards so it's definitely a widespread feeling
