Happy Halloween from the International Owl Center! We're celebrating by sharing images of Blakiston's Fish Owl skeletons (the largest owl in the world.)

Very interestingly, the sclerotic rings (eye bones) of Blakiston's Fish Owls are proportionally much smaller than Snowy Owls and Great Horned Owls.
