Who (!) misunderstands owls?? It is a big club though. Lots of spiders and bears.

Definitely not the superbowl community

There are still parts of the world that think owls are bad luck or ill omens and will kill them or drive them off.

That said, anything popping out of the dark or making sudden unexpected sounds is going to startle people pretty good. That's led to plenty of spooky stories and owl based spirits over the years.

Go camping and it is so chill and sweet to hear owls talking to each other across a distance.

Yes, I spent my Saturday waiting for a video to load and it was an owl dancing in church. Worth it.

Yeah, crows and ravens are more misunderstood.

That’s for your more combat focused type of witches and warlocks. Nothing more intimidating to your enemies than a cackling female hyena with a fully-erect pseudopenis

Yeah... intimidating... let's go with that 🙃
