Brianna Hagen shared this picture she took on Saturday in South Range, Wis. (town of Oakland):
“He let me get rather close to him,” Brianna writes.
I guess so. I love the eyes of this owl, which I think is a boreal. Someone please correct me if I’m wrong.
The owls don’t seem to be in a hurry to head back north.

It looks like that Owl was posing for the camera.
Exactly what the great gray owl I spotted seemed to do. Owls are fun.
