eye color!

Looking at your owl's eye color, it makes me think there are several eye colors on owls. How many different eye colors have you seen on owls?
Grazie e Ciao,

Bravo Marc!!

What a deep glance!!! I like owls very much...they have something of humane. Maybe i'd been affected by the reading of the book "The ancient Solitary Reign" by Martin Hocke, a fantasy relating about owls. It's very charming.
Have a good evening.

Re: Bravo Marc!!

Except for occasional running into an owl in the wilderness, I didn't know much about owls. I am, however, becoming more and more familiar with them in the recent months. For the past few months I have been doing volunteer work for the "wild animal rescue center" in our town. I am learning about seabirds and raptors everyday. Raptors are most fascinating.

Thanks you for the visit and the comment, Silvia,

Crazy about owls ..

This owl reminds me of Bubo the Owl,
as seen in Clash of the Titans.

Here's a CLIP in case you don't remember it.

Re: Crazy about owls ..

Wow Larry! I had no memory of Bubo The Owl till I saw the the clip. Yes, I remember now, Bubo was the cutest owl. Thank you for the visit and the clip Larry.
Cheers,

Re: It looks like

It is, it is all about the eyes.
As they say "eyes are the windows to the soul."

Re: WOW!

Thank you very much, Eric. As paulo puts it "it's all about the yes." I was just lucky that he wasn't moving around too much at the time.
Thanks again and cheers, Marc
