Little Owls

This blog might as well be called Knit Like You Mean It PLUS bonus baby animals!. FU Penguin would be appalled. However – aren’t these baby burrowing owls great?

The first in 30 years, apparently.  And they have a look that says, “Took you guys long enough.”

Hop on over to the National Zoo Photostream for more photos.  And consider knitting some Owlings hand mitts (rav lnk) to welcome these little guys to the world.
