Can You Say 'Awwww?'

I don't think this is one of my best photos, but this Northern Saw-Whet Owl is one of the most adorable things I've ever seen. Sure, she shreds mice for lunch and would do the same to the fingers of anyone disrespectful enough to forget she's a wild animal, but each time I look at her, my first thought is always "awww."

This bird is a permanent resident at a raptor rehabilitation facility. Non-releasable due to blindness in one eye, she now serves as an education bird.
