29th of Owltober! A Long-eared Owl is tagged for scientific research by Rocky Point Bird Observatory in BC, Canada. "In order to safely band and weigh larger owls, we put them in a wrap which keeps them calm." Want to donate to RPBO? https://rpbo.org/donate/ Source: https://fb.com/1488930533144323 #owlsintowels 💛🦉
