Description
As night falls in the forests of Scotland, we find a mother tawny owl and her owlets. Don't let this cuddly picture fool you, though. Mother tawny owls are known to attack intruders with their sharp talons. Because of their flight is silence, it may not be detected until it is too late to avoid the danger. One of the best-known victims of the tawny owl attack was the photographer Eric Hosking, who lost his left eye when struck by a tawny owl he was attempting to photograph near its nest in 1937. As a result, he called his autobiography An Eye for a Bird.
