Solar-Powered Owl
This little chappie sits on the back wall of our garden, all the time thinking he is actually a hollowed out pumpkin and every night is Hallowe’en.
He is quietly pleased in an owlish sort of way to feature in my post for this week’s OddBall Challenge.
I like things that make me laugh. I hope you do too.

Meow! Meow! These two cats stopped me dead in my tracks the first time I saw them when we turned the corner from our hotel in Palma. On closer inspection, they’re cardboard cut-outs of pedigree Read more…
Two favourite things feature as my OddBall choices for Cee’s Challenge this week: Bread and Chocolate. Thank you for visiting PHOTOPHILE. And thanks as ever to Cee:
Definition of the word “OddBall” : Something which is strange, eccentric, unusual, bizarre. I think a handsome fox, dressed as if he’s going to a wedding (complete with a red carnation in his buttonhole) and Read more…

I really like your odd owl for this week. Thanks. 😀

Such a cool idea. And, it’s fun to display in the garden. 🙂

The owl is great and I understand it is making you laugh. There is only one thing and I hope I am not spoiling your good mood: the blue and the stars remind me of the EU flag…

Euro-owl! I like that. If I was ever going to get a tattoo ( which I’m not!) it would be a discreet EU flag on my wrist.
I’m hoping maybe someone will bring out a nice little wristband, maybe silver, with the coloured flag on. Then I can be sure that everyone I meet in the course of every day knows how I feel.

If ever I spot a wristband like that, I will let you know. However, I’m afraid it is a bit difficult to find, maybe in The Hague where the government is residing. In the meantime, you have your owl to enjoy. Such a great adornment in the garden.

I’m going to look on Amazon.

Great idea! Let me know if you find such a treasure.

Haven’t done yet. Wish I knew a jewellery designer!

I love the scattered blues, and the yellows strewn about the image. It makes me happy to look at.
