Came across this pic and I had to share this once it was out of the tournament.

Even the most beautiful creature has at least one angle that is simply not flattering!

Is that owl doing a blep?!

This is one time I actually have no clue what is going on!

I believe this is the source and there are a few photos in the set, but it doesn't look to fill us in on anything.

Based on 5 minutes of searching I choose to believe it is blepping

I saw a Great Horned do a mouth poopie and it didn't have an ick face near this bad.

I don't think I've seen an owl whitewash in person yet, but if it's like the hawk, I'm good. 😜
