Super cool!! You can really see how their wings beat more in a figure eight pattern than straight up and down. Owls are just badass anyway. :D

Badass is right. I sure wouldn't want to see that thing comes at me with its claws like that!

Absolutely beautiful! And a little scary. But mostly beautiful!

Wow, you can even see the movement of individual feathers. That's amazing.

Yeah, when it started to extend its claws I felt just like a mouse!!

Owls are incredible birds.
