Last night we were having a lovely browse at
"Bonspiel" on etsy. As I was feeling particularly out of sorts due to having the lurgy, I felt this "Frowl"tee would speak volumes (and it comes in a mini size for Blythe dolls).


And I also felt that having this satchel would make everything all better.
Then Mr. BJ calls us to come outside and look ...there is a lovely feathery fellow sitting on our power line.

This bird is a Tawny Frogmouth(sometimes mistaken for an owl). But instead of flying around finding prey, this guy just sits still and waits for prey to come to him. I hope he scored well with some of those delicious MASSIVE cockroaches around at the moment, and maybe a mouse or two. He looked a bit gruff, but that's probably because I was interrupting!
So not feeling as grumpy today, I realized that every owl I make is what I would call "Cheerily Startled".

Maybe some grouchy ones are in order, for the days you are feeling those monthly hormones kick in.
those owls are very cute indeed. How wonderful having a Frogmouth visit!! We have lived with the bush at our back fence for 7 years now and only ever seen one!!!
ReplyDelete8 little owls went out one day ... makes a change to ducks anyway!
