Owls, Owls...Fantastical Fowls    

Thief River Falls Library
Throughout history and in every culture, owls have been part of local literature, folklore and superstitions.They've been considered wise -and foolish. They've been feared by some, and venerated by others. They've been bothe admired and despised.
But there's one thing about owls on which we can all agree: they are fascinating!
