Nursery Meet the Owls

Date: 10th Oct 2023 @ 1:26pm

Nursery had a very exciting visit this week - we met four owls! We went to meet our feathered friends in the dance studio and waited patiently for their handler to take them out of their boxes. We met Tike, Casper and Twiglet. and a beautiful owl with bright orange eyes. We were excited to learn that Tike burrows under the ground and Casper comes from Africa. One of the owls had bright orange eyes and these help him to see over long diatnaces so he can catch his prey. We also got to hold Twiglet. Twiglet's feathers look just like the bark of a tree so he can camouflage himself from preditors. Thank you SMJ Falconry for bringing your owls to see us.
