Owls Mating at the Bird Bath

 Recently the owls visited the bird bath and began mating. I felt a bit like a voyeur, but in the interest of science I took some pictures. If you're not into owl porn you may wish to skip these, although there's nothing too graphic- they are birds, after all. Everything is covered in feathers.

                                                    "Wait, where are you going?"

                                                 "Men, they're all the same"

                                                                                                         "Now what?"

                "I was thinking about Round 2 but I'm on the fence about it"

                                                              "I need a drink"

 A raven visited the bird bath recently:

Later the same day a raven made another visit. I can't be certain it was the same bird but it behaved similarly, hopping back and forth between the ground and the bird baths:
