Video (slow motion) of Owl flying towards camera « Posted: 20 January 2012 at 07:24 AM »

Take a look at this remarkable slow motion video (1000 frames per second) of an owl (I think it’s an Eagle Owl) flying towards the camera http://www.dogwork.com/owfo8/

Beautiful feathers and so graceful. For some reason it reminds me of a cat!!

No trees were harmed as a result of this post, however a large number of electrons were temporarily inconvenienced.

I've never seen a cat with wings that big!  Grin

I watched it again and, from about mid-flight - the light feathers around the beak do look like a cat;s face.

Perhaps it's the offspring of the dalliance between The Owl and the Pussy Cat".
