'The Owl and the Pussycat'
I had a laugh during the week. For those who don't know me well I have a love for owls. Don't ask me why as the answer is I don't know but I do. It was the photograph that actually caught my attention. It was a tiger (if I remember correctly) and lying in it's enclosure and at it's front paws was a little bundle of fluff which was, in truth, a baby Tawny Owl which, as the article went onto explain, had fallen out of the nest and landed in the tiger enclosure. Once it was able to fly it managed to get out of the enclosure but it had to spend a few days with the tiger before it's wings were strong enough to get it out of harms way. Not that it seemed to be an any great danger as the tiger didn't seem to bothered by it in any way, shape or form. But I have to admit it was just a wonderful picture. I would have loved to have seen the initial reaction of the tiger. A nice feel good piece for a change.
