Owls as a source of inspiration! (more pics inside)

in #birds8 years ago (edited)



Dear steemit community! Today I want to tell you about one more shelter in Kiev district. It is a shelter of our friends Irina and Valeriy. They called their shelter Farmland Nushanikovo after their beloved labrador Nusha. They help wild birds. Mostly - pradatory birds: owls,  hawks, eagles. People bring them injured wild pradatory birds from different regions of Ukraine and Irina and Valeriy help these birds to return to theit ordinary life in the wild nature. Owls come to the shelter very often. This is because people want to have an owl at home, but then fail how to take care about it.

You can find more information about Farmland Nushanikovo on their Facebook page.


Our friend artist Inber was inspirated by these amazing birds and started to paint their portraits. 



Thank you inber  for these wonderful pictures!

I love owls. A couple of weeks ago I was grilling when a white barn owl came and perched on a branch 10 feet away from me. I had never been that close to one and sat still so I wouldn't frightened it away. It kept looking around the ground. I was about to text my girlfriend inside to come out slowly when she came out making noise with the door which scared it away. It was really cool to be there with it in the middle of the night.

Yes! They are amazing birds!

I didn't know an owl looks so beautiful, thanks for the post
