      I do often look at the disparity of votes between the first pic and the comment pics and wonder who all is missing the rest.

      It’s like if you never knew there was hidden text in an xkcd comic or the King of the Hill where they go to Japan and think the sitting room is their entire hotel suite.

      I love the posts where the photos tell a story or where we get to examine tiny details or discuss nifty facts.

      I truly enjoy getting to do this with all of you.

        I don’t always have time to open every post but I try to upvote them all to promote the community.

          I appreciate it! The posts don’t go anywhere so you can always browse them whenever.

          I don’t care if people comment in old posts too, if you ever have a question on one.

      It’s tremendously tough to try and top a tiny Tawny! 😍

      I think it’s really special to see the care these birds that won’t usually tolerate their own kind sacrificing for so long taking care of the babies. Especially foster owls! Reading these stories of unreleasable owls taking care of multiple years worth of babies and teaching them to be successful owls is very heartwarming!
