And he became to be known as " YODAHORNYOWL " because of all the Owlets he fathered.

Is that real?

I see how they blend in with their surroundings. I think I might have a hard time seeing them. I've never seen a live owl

How did they determine the age? Cut it in half and count the rings?

Birds can live a surprisingly long time

Interesting. Where does an owl store its birth certificate? Under cover of darkness. Seriously though, how was age determined?

No clue, but, here in WI they can age a sturgeon once they are harvested. Sad but true

Owl magnificent! Those talons-whoa and they retract. Is that correct or my eyes deceive me? Its wings cloak it like a gorgeous cape and they’re so majestic that I forget they’re absolutely silent in flight.
The king and queens of flight, which the Owls are not aware of. They own the evenings silence

28 years is a looong time to live full-time in the elements outdoors without opposable thumbs.
