Hi blog readers!
My hubby told me that in many African cultures, the owl is seen as a harbinger of negative things. Of course, being raised in the urban America, the owl is seen as wise and knowledgeable.
In the wild, here in Namibia, owls can range in sizes from as small as my size 9 1/2 shoe (toe to heel) to as long as my Labrador (wing span) with talons and beaks that make you feel like perhaps you are not at the top of the food chain afterall. Shudder-shudder....
But, they do eat the nasty snakes, yucky grasshoppers, cute field mice, and sometimes other smaller animals like frogs, rock dossies, etc...
Check out this little guy.
He looks how I feel when I have to get up too early in the morning. I just want to blend in and be left alone.
Come for a holiday in Namibia. Enjoy yourself safely.
