The Eyes have it
1 year, 11 monthsMany of the Owl's feathers are specially designed. Bristles are small feathers with a stiff shaft and barbs only on the base. Bristles occur most commonly around the base of the bill, around the eyes, and as eyelashes. They make for a unique pattern on the owls face, but I have to say, the eyes steal the show. This Barred Owl was at the Wildlife Center and willing to pose for me.
