From Hancock County Naturlalists
About 1 second after this photo was taken this morning, 2 things were learned:
Owlet learned he could not fly!
I learned Owlets can swim!
Its flight lasted about 5 feet and SPLASH…right in the middle of the river! It just kind of was a blob in the water. I am thinking to myself…OH NO am going to have to go on a rescue mission! After a few seconds it started using its wings to paddle itself through the water. However, instead of going to the opposite bank it came back to where it took off, but a little more wet!
Yup, the Morepork was in the Owl of the Year for a few rounds, and that was when Discworld kept getting brought up.
I’ve heard about it long before, but I generally avoid longer series. I feel ready to check it out now though.
