Have you seen this?

It features OWL's darling Snoopy, a Northern Saw-whet owl, who recently passed away at the age of 9+ years (old for a Saw-whet).
Do I expect you to watch all 41 minutes of it? No, but it's nice to have running in the background while you're working on something else.
Thanks goes to Hootsuite for creating this charming video last year.
Enjoy!

Yes, we were all upset over the loss of Snoopy. It is comforting to know that although he could not live in the wild his life had purpose. He educated the public on the dangers that wildlife face every day. He was loved by all and will be sorely missed.

Nice to see the Savannah Sparrows back flitting am[…]
