A few months ago, Hannie was outside the city looking for some great snaps, when she spotted a barn owl chick. The sweet little thing still had white fluffy chick feathers, so that mean it wasn’t already able to fly. As it turns out, baby owl’s are strong enough to flap only when they’re 7-8 weeks old. Nonetheless, until then, the chicks legs are strong enough to let wake around their nest.
