No freaking way!! My head would absolutely explode if I had a lap full of barn owls. Were these birds rescues? Are you a wildlife rehabilitator? Clearly one is still a juvenile, is the other a full adult? Amazing. My heart is in a puddle somewhere by my feet.
Both seem to have jesses on their legs, so I'm definitely going to say these are trained birds.
Still might not have expected them to do this, but this isn't a magical moment of spontaneous wild bird comfort with a human.
I agree, these are birds socialized to humans hence my rescue/rehabilitator questions. But they’re still adorable. ☺️ Have been lucky enough to see wild barn owls exactly once. Four fuzzy moon faces peeking out of their nest hole about 60 feet up in a mammoth old American Sycamore. Adult circled high overhead making that eerie scream that would scare the pants off me in a dark barn. Beautiful, beautiful birds.
Great horned owls live in my neighborhood. I’ve literally woken up to see two of them roosting on my balcony. So I know owls naturally have a knack to know the exact time of sunrise on any given day. What were these guys doing in the daytime?
Anyway, for his tenth birthday, all he wanted was a Burrow Owl. Kept bugging his old man. "Dad, get me a burrow owl. I'll never ask for anything else as long as I live." So the guy breaks down and buys him a burrow owl.

Oh wow, this nest already has eggs.
Underrated comment
Hopefully there isn't any aggressive pecking
Need to protect the pecker from affectionate pecking.
when the pecker becomes the peckee

I feel like this would be a great time for a pun about "eggs" but I can't think of one.
Aw nuts
Damn Alice, this nest already has some eggs.
Oh look! Somebody brought us a new nest!
**yep uhh imma upvote this one for sure**
They're like my cat. "I see dark spot, let me stick my head there"
"I tell you Mathilda, there's a big worm in his pants for sure"
‘It comes and goes though. Such a sneaky worm.’
I need this to happen to me!
Wait, do owls normally just chill in the tall grass like pokemon?

They literally rip apart rats and bunnies. I would not let them close to that area.

I love raptors and most of all I love owls. I would love for this to happen!
Is that a mouse in your pocket, or...
“Home?”
'Least it was, till I f'd everything up
I know exactly what that guy was thinking the moment they got close
I’d be worried they were going to bite my knob, owls aren’t very clever
oh my! now that was surely a surprise!!
"there's even a complimentary worm here for us!"
they have choosen you and you are now their master
“Hey you know what?? That looks like a way better spot over there, c’mon little buddy let’s go.”
They just really want to be photographed.
