"Give me a hug!!!

Photo Information

This is Kai the European Eagle Owl and her owner, she is so tame towards him that all he says to the owl is "give me a hug" and Kai wraps her wings around him. I am glad I got a shot of this as nobody would believe me.

Aren't eagle owls massive and they look so vicious? But this capture shows they can be softies.
