Yup--little aliens. I got to raise two of them from the time they were 3 days old and they were absolutely amazing to watch grow. They are now used in education programs at the zoo I worked at. We named them Geddy and Alex (after Rush since they Fly By Night). Yes, we're dorks.

Its funny about birds. Baby buzzards are cute and grow up into...buzzards. We have some nesting in the back yard. Looks perfect in a grave yard...

I love how the one owl tries to sacrifice his sibling to the camera. :laughing:
