Two days after the onslaught that was
Glenda, an unexpected guest flew into my grandmother's home.
 |
| From Hogwarts? :) |
Yes, it's an owl!
The poor thing must have lost its way during the typhoon, so we decided to take care of it for the meantime. Everyone was so excited to have this feathered friend around, especially my little man. He even named it '
Hedwig', after Harry Potter's ever famous owl.

I believe this is the
Philippine Scops-Owl aka
Oriental Screech Owl, though I don't remember hearing it screech while he was here.

| That stare. |
We were supposed to turn this guy over to the folks at DENR this week, but my grandmother decided to just let Hedwig leave on his own. She was worried that the poor thing might die, since we don't know exactly what to feed it with. I know owls eat mice and lizards and stuff like that, but how on earth am I supposed to give him those? Lol.
Anyway, it was nice meeting you, Hedwig. I hope you're safe and sound and happily eating wherever you are. :)
