I've had several great bosses through the years. Ones who considered teaching me and developing my skills/career to be part of their primary job duties instead of feeling threatened. I learned a ton from them.
My current boss is also amazing. I'm a nurse at a hospital that just unionized, and she really puts her job on the line to make sure we have what we need to keep the patients on our unit safe. She's a lot of the reason I didn't quit a long time ago.
What a wild family history!
It's so interesting to watch the retrospective reclassification of biology as we learn more and more. To compare what people thought they knew a hundred years ago with what we know now.
Whaaaaaaaaat!! So many!
I knew the Eurasian one because it gets mentioned on the lists of largest owls in the world. I thought it was the one and only.
I honestly forgot the Verreaux was also an Eagle Owl. Just remembered Verreaux, which is such a wizard name haha.
I just looked up the Pharaoh, and I would never in my life have guessed a difference between that owl and the GHO. (Except, obviously, the desert pictures lol). Even it's face markings are so similar to GHO!
Which makes me wonder why the GHO didn't get named as an Eagle Owl of some sort? Quirk of history, I suppose.
Let's fill out these teams!!
Long Eared Owl
Great Gray Owl
Great Horned Owl
Burrowing Owl
Eagle Owl
Saw Whet Owl
Flam-my! 👏 Flam-my! 👏 Flam-my! 👏
We the fans of the Flammulated Owl are a devoted bunch and we will get this little guy to victory
Tengmalm's Owl
I saw him in your post earlier and I definitely need more of this big-headed weirdo in my life
Maybe we could throw Burrowing Owls in the mix and do BFOs vs. the little guys
I'm indifferent to teams. I follow NCAA not NFL ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Oh these are the straight up Ru Paul of eagle owls. Look at that pose!
