行ってきました、念願だった掛川花鳥園！！目的は猛禽類（タカとかワシとかフクロウとか）I went to a theme park in Shizuoka prefecture yesterday. This is a place features birds and flowers from around the world.かぁっっっっっっこいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいい！！大感動。こんな間近でフクロウを拝めるとは！I found out about this place while I was looking up some photos of owl, when I was making my previous book, "Fly away, the three duckling brothers!" Since then I always wanted to go there and see the real owls. I think they are the coolest birds...!!
オオフクロウのくるみちゃん。愛くるしい〜。This one was my favourite. I love her walnut coloured feathers. She's actually called "Kurumi", or walnut in English.
威厳たっぷりのカラフトフクロウさま。見つめられると理由なしにあやまりたくなる。An owl with dignity. I'm sure this one knows everything.
表向き〜。ボケーーーーー。
後ろ向き〜。ボーーーーーーーーッ。Have you seen a peacock butt? If not, there you go!
