    I hear owls at night all the time, but having lived here since 2001, this is the first time I have actually seen one out and about!!
    I was so excited, just had to go out and take it's picture. It heard me taking the pictures, and turned it's head and looked right at us. Is this cool or what?

    And looked right at us!

    What a wonderful idea. I think owls are so cool. One winter when we lived in Michigan, we saw a beautiful baby snow owl. Here in Florida we hear them a lot.

    You might be thrilled with the result if you research it and give it a try. It is easy to get the photo onto fabric with the right software and the inkjet transfer kits. I use Print Artist software and Avery T-Shirt Transfers. I buy the transfers at WM because they are so much cheaper there than at Jo Ann.
