Love it. And owls are always a winner. Thank you.

Love the camels! Those owlets are adorable.

Love these camels and looks as if they have a lovely winter coat! That is not , like you said something you would expect to see in Chicago.... but , one of the things i love about big cities is... diversity... and this definitely represents that. Keep warm!

oh and that baby owl video so cute, although I did jump when the baby pecked on the camera lens. Scared me!

Yes that is unusual but I watched the vide which was excellent and nearly jumped out of my skin when the baby owl peeked the camera for the first time. Have a lovely weekend.

Yes, it is surprising how many in my area keep exotics. You don't have to get too far out of the city to find them. The baby owl video is priceless!! Little thing still isn't sure what is edible and what is not.

Loved the owl video. I almost quit watching when the owl flew away but then the babies came up out of the tree. It made me jump (and laugh) when he tried to eat the camera. Interesting views one would never get to see ordinarily.

Life is certainly full of surprises! The camel looks a bit bemused too :)
