A few days ago, I told you about my "creep-outed-ness" issue with Owls. I have started reading the book Kelly gave me, Wesley the Owl. I am only a few pages in, so no rave reviews just yet. But...I have decided that as I go through the book, if there are interesting "Owl Facts" that may help sway me to the side of "kinda" liking owls, I will share those facts with you. Maybe this book will change my mind...but the jury is certainly still out...tell me that photo isn't just a little creepy.
Interesting Fact #1:
Owls are extremely emotional (maybe I have more in common with them than I thought..HA!). In fact, they are emotionally delicate. For example, owls mate for life, and when an owl's mate dies, he doesn't necessarily go out and find another partner. Instead, he might turn his head to face the tree on which he's sitting and stare fixedly in a deep depression until he dies. Such profound grief is indicative of how passionately owls can feel and how devoted they are to their mates.

That is very interesting. All animals are so special in their own way. I get creeped out by certain things as well but maybe your heart will open and you will find a kinship with owls!
