One eagle owl spotted today. At Helsinki, Siltavuorenpenger 20.
It was probably as amused by me as I was by it and we kept staring at each other through the window glass for quite some time. The owl spent the whole day there and as I left the building it was still sitting on that brim. I wouldn't mind seeing it again tomorrow.
I googled newspapers and found out that there are perhaps five or so eagle owls living in downtown Helsinki this year. This was my first sighting on one and I must say there was something very sympathetic about the look in its face. Feathers almost like fur.
Fine animal. The word 'bird' doesn't seem to fit somehow.
