Great Horned Owl (Bubo virginianus) takes a breezy afternoon snooze. They can stay incredibly still, resting during the day for nocturnal hunting activities. Their concealing plumage allows them to remain undetected by most creatures, even on exposed perches. I've found myself within 10 feet of an individual before even realized they were there.

Oh wow, thanks for sharing. We have the first variety, I was aware they're aggressive but that's normal-aggressive, to me!
The second is extremely beautiful, and with the bonus of docile? Wouldn't mind making friends with one.
Thanks again, enjoy your Sunday!
The pretty one I've held on a few occasions, though if they get scared, they can spray you with some foul secretion. 😮
Always a pleasure to share with you!
What?! I've been spat on by llamas, which is also foul. Thanks for the warning-- and your kindness. Blessings!
