Does anyone out there like owls?
I have a lovely friend who likes owls. I can understand that. There is something very appealing about the little guys. Funny thing is, I seem to see them everywhere I go these days.
Had any good owl sightings lately? You’ll probably find some when you’re out Saturday shopping.
Enjoy your Saturday, whatever you plan to do. My first job is always Six word Saturday. Cate at Show My Face has been running this challenge for the longest time. Join in if you’d like.




Owls are so cute, I’ve got an owl cushion on my sofa, good old BHS to thank for it. They seem to be everywhere at the moment but that’s fine with me…and you too by the looks of it! Hope you had a great weekend Jo. Now over to your Monday walk… 🙂

The weather was fabulous all weekend, Sherri, but I was back in Winter with the walk this morning. 🙂 Cosied up with a cuppa now.

I see owls items everywhere too! Some are lovely, but sometimes they are a bit menacing looking.

They are such fascinating creatures Jo, have always loved owls although I only have a couple of them (as ornaments) in our house. Wouldn’t mind snaffling a a couple of those 🙂

I haven’t had much contact with the real thing, Sam. In captivity they seem a little sad, though I love the flying hawk shows. 🙂

Me neither, apart from the Tawny Frog mouth that occasionally visits us and I’ve been told that they’re technically not an owl. I always loved the owl characters in Disney animations as well as the one in Winnie the Pooh and Hedwig in Harry Potter 🙂

I love owls – we get them here in Western Australia I think they must be a slightly different family branch to the European ones. A few months ago one paid us a visit and sat on our pool fence for ages (we kept the cat indoors!). Enjoy your weekend 🙂

Must be fantastic to see them in the wild, Rosemay. 🙂 No, I don’t suppose they would see eye to eye with your cat!

It was a real treat Jo – there is an owl family who live in the park opposite our house the babies are so cute! The cat was chafing at the bit to get out of the door! Eventually the owl nonchalantly flew off I have photos somewhere! 🙂

I like owls. The first and last photos are my favorite of your owls. Owls have been popular here in the states for a few years now. I am more a fox person though as it is my maiden name so I have a connection to them! 🙂 Hope you are having a wonderful weekend!

I love owls and I love yours! I have a very strong memory which my grandparents confirmed really happened – I was very young, still in a pushchair, and staying with them in the country. One night my grandfather wrapped me up warm and we went walking to listen to the owls and watch them – such a special moment and I love that I remember it!

Other than real live owls I cannot say that I am interested in them, but you are right, they do seem to be very popular. I think it is because of the eyes – large round eyes always seem so cute.

I don’t often get close up with real ones, Jude, and then always in captivity. They are beautiful creatures. Did you see Yvette’s video?

I enjoy owls in decorations and found at Walgreens, a black bottle a little wider than a pop bottle with a glass stopper in it, with a white painted owl and the word, “Potions,” written on the black bottle. It is my newest addition to my Halloween collection. I put a white glazed glass pumpkin beside it, on a shelf. You have a wonderful number of owls featured here! smiles!

Those little buggers are SO cute, and so are the real live versions which I haven’t seen sunce the dats Dad would spot one in our field.
I read about a year ago that the “new trend” in decorating home murseries here in the US was shifting from blue or pink cutesie to a brown-green-blue color scheme for male & female bsbies with OWLS as the predominate theme. There must be some truth to it because I see many wide-eyed owls in home decor sections of our stores, so someone’s buying the switch!
