Hoot a nanny!

This little spunky owl was over 40 years old, most of it's life it was thought to be a male. But when it laid an egg, the zoo people discovered it was a female. Even though it was still you had to capture it at the right time, they are pretty quick with their head spins. I enjoyed this exhibit of the birds before we went down the path to the petting zoo for the kids. They had a ball with all the farm animals, still the ducks seems to be number 1 for Ashwin - think it is the fascination with water!
