For as long as I can remember really. It annoys me people kept trying to mess with them. Why the hell would you climb the tree and try to poke them with a stick? Seriously?<br /><br />Hope they are better off where they are now.<br /><br />Glad to see you posting Fey Publishing! :)<br /><br />The submission looking for ghost stories may be cool, since I had a handful through the A to Z. Articulating them a bit more may be challenging, though.<br /><br />Jak at <a href="http://crytonchronicles.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">The Cryton Chronicles</a> & <a href="http://dreamsintheshadeofink.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Dreams in the Shade of Ink</a>Jakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05069266783997777691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7646134662936278718.post-66633754580258697532013-06-23T03:54:07.025-06:002013-06-23T03:54:07.025-06:00Love the owls!!

I completely adore owls, I can't stop buying owly kind of things for my house :) They are just such mysterious, striking birds. But to hear that they had to move the babies to protect them, which meant the parents lost their babies too soon? That is disgusting. Why in the heck would someone poke a stick at them??? I want to go jam a stick at that guy! Phew, I better settle down :)Kinley Danehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02648398736837020249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7646134662936278718.post-70400536987831553522013-06-19T19:09:08.356-06:002013-06-19T19:09:08.356-06:00What a wonderful ending to that story.

Makes you want to dance and sing n'stuff.<br /><br />Let's hope them owls are left alone now. <br /><br />Links and contests. The Capilano one intrigues me. I've been to the Capilano Suspension bridge in North Vancouver. <br /><br />I wouldn't climb the tree. We have Barn owls around here. We also have foxes, hedgehogs and cats who think my vegetable patch is convenience area.<br /><br />I know you will adore me as I share your link on 'Farcebook'.<br /><br />Your starstruck fan,<br /><br />Garyklahaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08613505424843475639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7646134662936278718.post-68213180660084416362013-06-19T16:28:15.061-06:002013-06-19T16:28:15.061-06:00We like owls, hubby is a bit of a birder.

He'd fly up, like the road was flying, because I couldn't see him until he flew. I screamed my head off every time.<br /><br />I'll have to come back and make more notes of some of these submissions.
