A “very large, rare winter visitor” recently showed up in upstate New York to the delight of many wildlife enthusiasts.

A safari guest had the rare opportunity to record a Verreaux’s eagle owl eating a scorpion whole while he was visiting Botswana. It’s weird.

An owl flew up to a skier, landed by his feet, and dramatically looked up at him. The man believes this was a message from Mother Nature.

A family expecting Santa had an owl come down the chimney instead. The owl perched atop their Christmas tree and didn’t intend to leave.

A wildlife photographer caught the moment an owl upchucked a pellet so large that it had to use its talons to yank it out of its mouth.

A Good Samaritan rescued an owl from barbed wire, even though it required a road trip to get the bird some help. Watch here.

Imagine taking a nap when, suddenly, your neighbor punches you and leaves. That happened to a bald eagle when an owl attacked it randomly.

A tree transforms into an owl before your eyes in a video showing off a great grey owl’s camouflage. Watch it here.

A burrowing owl got a twig stuck in its wing, and its friends’ reaction to the random twig is funny to watch.

Some of a wildlife photographer’s most popular work online are her videos of burrowing owls bobbing their heads. See why.
