European Hawk Owl

Can't believe they tied this poor bloke's feet to the ground!! What's worse is there are aviaries like 20 feet from here. Them fiends! Seriously, he couldn't get away from people (and the sun...I mean, he IS nocturnal, after all)

Fargin bastiges

Also, these particular owls are RIDICULOUSLY HUGE. I couldn't believe how big he/she was!
