Beautiful Ural owl in its natural habitat.
The magical atmosphere of a fairy-tale forest.

Very beautiful. I’d like to live here.
That shade looks very refreshing right now!
Is it wearing a cape? Wizard.
You sent me down an interesting rabbit hole!
I thought “what is the difference between a Cassie and a cloak?” and ended up finding this really interesting and informative article.
Other than learning the difference, I learned why people started wearing them, why they stopped, and even what that white fur with the black spots is on your classic royal robe, which I’d also always wondered but never had looked up before.
The owl may or may not be a wizard, but you sent me on a magical and educational quest! 😀
Wha!? That’s so coool!! Thank you for sharing! I’m off down the rabbit hole myself! Ta! 🤩🐇✨
I felt a person of culture such as yourself would appreciate it. 😉
Lovely! (Very Quiet) Pictures You Can Hear.
The little noises are just telling the owl what today’s special is going to be for dinner. 😜
