  • Those owls kinda creep me out but i love the way it bobbed his head X3 so cute

  • shoulda put some fast paced music in background lol

  • dear santa,............... :D

  • That owl's got its own little groove happening there.

  • how do you legally obtain and own an owl

  • @str8organic38mm Depends on the country; it's illegal to own barn owls in the United States due to the Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918, but countries like Japan and the UK allow people to raise domesticated owls. Leoram1991's from the UK.

  • My god I wish I could dance like him

  • 'dance dance! woo! YEA!! HEAD ROLL!! I AM AWESOME' 

  • HEAD ROLL! AWW YEAA

    

  • I clicked to a random part in this vid while listening to a song on the radio, and the the weird part was THE OWL DANCED IN SYNC.

  • (*looks up at tree*) the wild, so close, i think i can i think..(*looks down) ah screw it.. (*turns and looks at other post*) ...ah! post!! :)

    ....he/she looks like one happy owl! great video!

  • 0:20 "OH NO U DIDDANT!"

  • Owl dance party

  • People the leather straps around its feet are for falconry, they are not cruel, and they are akin to wearing socks. If the owl wanted to leave he/she would. If you see any bird of prey with leather straps on its feet you can be pretty sure that it is owned by a trained professional who probably treats their bird better than most people treat their children.

  • He's listening to his ipod.

  • Hes cute!Where do you get those?I really want one!

  • Soren? :OO

  • Stomp the yard 

  • I have a question, aren't owls nocturnal?  Or is that simply a habit brought on by needing to hunt at night? If they are fed are they more active during the day?

  • Why are there ropes around the owl's legs?

  • @Marny5580 they arent ropes theyre leather straps used for birds of prey (falconry). im not actually sure what they mainly do but i thing theyre sort of like a collar for birds and you can strap a rope in it around something if you want it to stay in the same spot.

  • But when an owlet has imprinted on a HUMAN as a parent then the stakes are changed. If the owlet is cared for in the same manor as the wild mother or father would with little to NO CONTACT then it might be able to be released to the wild again for it will be conditioned and raised for it. But in other instances like here the owl is very well cared for but cannot be returned or released for it would not know how to survive. Thus the imprint has domesticated it.

  • I have noticed a lot asking what is imprinting? I can answer that for you. Like most animals when they are born or hatched as is the case here they will IMPRINT on the first thing they see(meaning mother and father owls that is LOL). Then and there they will look to them as their parents. With owls it is within the first 4 weeks. After that it takes much more time for the Owlet to recognize or trust for its instincts kick in. 5 to 6 weeks later they are pretty well mobile but still need care.

  • Great vid by the way. VERY happy Owl there. Where was this taken? Looks nice.

  • @aahzmandiusblack thanks, it was taken in my garden well sort of my grans now.

  • @leoram1991 LOL I can see its a garden, what I meant was where was this taken. US, UK,other country? Very nice an peaceful though. You take very good care of it and the Owl.What is his name an how old is he?

  • I like this video, and I LOVE owls. This one is so cute.

  • That bird acts like the crackheads here in downtown Seattle lol

  • You dont OWN a owl. The OWL ones you.

  • why does it nod its head like that?

  • Luv it! Adorable :)

  • aaaww so fluffy its a baby owl isnt it?

  • does he work at hooters?

  • i know that u have to get a get approved by the government (depending where u live), do something else i forget, then get a license.

  • @jaidenm9 There are two different types of license's you need to have before you can house one. One is a Falconry license, the other is a Rescue and rehabilitation license. The falconry license you have to take classes as well as have someone SPONSOR you to get Government approval. Not easy to say the least. Apprenticeship takes two years The other you need to have veterinarian medical training and Knowledge of Avian anatomy to be approved for that work. Again not easy. Hope I helped

  • Do you need a license to own an owl?

  • awwwww so cute and adorable

  • Nice head moves

  • its not a little owl, its a barn owl

  • @gunthervatero i know ive owned birds of prey all my life , its just titled little because hes small still a baby

  • @leoram1991 I lol'd

  • @gunthervatero ummm, derp

  • HE SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO CUTEEEEEEEEE,i love his neck dance..i just wanna hug and kiss his face ..soo cute & FATTY <3 <3

  • He's walks like, "cause imma boss!"

  • Comment removed

  • What a beautiful animal...you're very lucky to be able to raise and care for these amazing creatures.

  • 0:15 - 0:24 "cant touch this"... XD

  • I imagine him talking in a  surly russian accent.

  • Tell Hogwarts that we found there missing messenger Owl

  • Bring that owl back to Hogwarts!

  • don't listen to the morons. yes, animals belong in the wild but its like plonking a ten year old kid in a forest and yelling, "BE FREE MY PRETTY!" The kid would last like a week.

  • @badgerstep thanks;)

  • @badgerstep well said! :)

  • @badgerstep that's 'cause kids are dumb.

  • @badgerstep given as much, animals also come with base instincts, where as children need nurturing. Domesticated animals often lose their wild sides after years of captivity and breeding, but even so, look at stray dogs and cats, they can survive on their own and roam wild in some remote areas

  • is the owl dancing?

  • lol the owl looks like a ghetto black girl when he moves his head back and forth :)

  • theyre such amazing animals, and so intelligent ! awesome companions, i cant wait till im able to have one.

  • techno remix!!!!!!!!

  • Looks like he has some rap going on in his headphones

  • lmao i love the circular head bob! xD

  • It lookes like hes dancing. :D

  • he thinking of skrillex?

  • He looks like he is dancing! :D

  • Gggggiiiiiirrrrrrrrrllllllll!!­! Don't make shake my head in a z formation

  • Should i get a barn owl or a little owl

  • He's cute!

  • HE BE STOMPIN' THE YARD!

  • I love your owl

  • rotate your owl!

  • I didn't think owls cud be any cuter til I was this video! lol

  • I love birds, ever since my wife saved an injured crow fledgling and we got him healthy again. He was so sociable and smart. He hada name and everything.

  • He's a great dancer.

  • HES KREEPY WEN HE MOVES HIS HEAD LIKE THAT EEEK

  • @SchoonerandJimbo it doesnt have a chain on???

  • @SchoonerandJimbo He's not chained down :/ Good job there.

  • @SchoonerandJimbo For a start he's not a wild animal, hes a captive bred owl. Second of all he isnt actually aware that he is an owl because he's an imprint. Thirdly he's unlikely to come into breeding condition but if he does we will probably give him the oppertunity to breed. Forthly he isnt chained down, he's free in this video. And he has the oppertunity to fly away everyday when he flys free.

  • @leoram1991 a imprint? whats that?

  • @leoram1991 .....WTF....sorry....Second of all he isnt actually aware that he is an owl because he's an imprint.???? PLEASE EXPLAIN TO ME :) how does an owl not know its an owl?

  • @leoram1991 do you have videos of the owl "flying away when he flies free"? so he comes back after flying away free?.. the tie on his ankle does seem to keep him there..it's upsetting that's all...nothing personal..at least he's safe..some get hit by cars..i live in the mountains..tried to rescue one that got hit, not killed..she'he was hopping around..i came prepared to trap him 4 safety but got away..i'm most happy hearing them hoot up on the pine where they live above my house...

  • Comment removed

  • @SchoonerandJimbo you sir....are a complete and utter moron. yes lets let all the animals raised in captivity go! so they can all die! yes thats brilliant!.....you are one stupid jackass

  • @SchoonerandJimbo Yeah epic fail on your part.

  • @SchoonerandJimbo It's not chained down so it could leave if it wished, also this bird is obviously an imprint therefore thinks of the owners as it's parents and "family" -_-

  • @SchoonerandJimbo are you blind? Or hallucinating? Where the heck you see a chain? That bird could fly away as easy as it takes a piss you moron. And don't you reckon life would be easier if someone would feed you and give you shelter without obligating you to do anything? Go hug a tree.

  • I know that's a wild animal, and he want's a family of his own!!!!!

  • He is soo cute!

  • it looks more like a barn owl to me.

  • @jontiways It is a barn owl....

  • @DoNotInterfare ah, well the title must be misleading because a little owl is a breed of owl, im pretty sure you should know that.

  • @jontiways I don't know mutch about owls, I just found out on another of his videos.

  • Does the owl give dance lessons? LOL. Awesome bird, thanks for posting.

  • hooray for owls!! XD

  • He be patrolin.

  • i feel like every barn owl i see has their own groove

  • lol he looks like he's dancing

  • thumbs up if this reminds you Harry Potter xD

  • aww what a sweetheart! his feathers look so soft and nice. are they soft?

  • they all look like there getting down to a song

  • There's a Pony named Twilight Sparkle who could use that Barn Owl.

  • That's rope's not even tied to anything is it? How did you train the owl not to fly away?

  • @WillyV089 at this point alfie wasnt an adult yet so he couldnt fly but it takes a while for them to learn not to fly away so you use a thing called a Lure which is like a long thin piece of string that ties the bird to your glove so they cant fly away but most dont try to you tempt them with food making sure they are the right weight etc so they ll come to you and eventually you can fly them free

  • Do you live in Holland ?? it looks like Holland xD

  • @nonameisje lol no scotland why did you think it loooked like holland? lol XD

  • @leoram1991 I live in Scotland! My favourite animal is a Barn Owl. I think that they are the most beautiful animal in the world. I would love to have one as a pet when I get older, but I am too afraid I will loose him/her. Is training difficult?

  • @penguinskillsealions hello, there scotsman! say, I am an international student at an english university and I can't say I like it that much; I heard Scottish universities are free to all non-english people; well, here's a deciding factor if I am to ever go there to study: are Scottish girls hotter than English girls? or are they the same?... or worse?

  • @leoram1991 hello, there scotsman! say, I am an international student at an english university and I can't say I like it that much; I heard Scottish universities are free to all non-english people; well, here's a deciding factor if I am to ever go there to study: are Scottish girls hotter than English girls? or are they the same?... or worse?

  • @leoram1991 so what does one do with a pet owl? 

  • @leoram1991 The houses look like the ones in Holland. Lol. :)

  • With the right music track, it would like like the owl is dancing. Can't think of what the song would be though.

  • Beautiful owl ;)

  • Isn't the owl suppose to be sleeping at this time. It's not a bird and I wonder how many times did the rope yank him from running away. Sick spoil selfish people.

  • @MrJad1114 ok for 1 , hes been hand raised so owls in captitvity are often up in the day cause thats when there handled, 2 an owl IS a bird (what are you talking about?) they are a bird of prey and 3 you can see in this video that he is not attached to anything are you blind?

  • @MrJad1114 ..... and 4 when they are tied up they are not in distress, we make sure all our animals are happy and secure , if we let them go free they could fly away they wouldnt survive in the wild they would die because they were orginally hatched in captitvity , alfie (barn owl in this video) is flowen.  My family are very passionate about animals and would never EVER do anything to distress them how dare you call us selfish and spoiled when u know nothing about us or about falconary.

  • @leoram1991 Tell him! XD I can see that you're very serious about this! Wow~ You guys are amazing! You care so much for the owls that you and your family take care of, it warms my heart. :)

  • @DOUGLA192 thanks for the support lol ;)

  • @MrJad1114 so you look at the negative aspects and fail to or purposely blind urself against the positives ?!?! Firstly , look at te surroundings and then see if the owl is happy or not and there ARE daytime owls , and im sure this owl is curious so it (dunno its gender) so it's not sleeping - and im SURE there are daytime owls . Lets see how u train owls - are u such a pessimistic fool that u can't see that the owl CAN fly atleast short distances and its not chained ? YOU r spoiled idiot

  • What is love? Baby don't hurt me, don't hurt me.... no more

  • awwwwwwwwwwww!

  • /watch?v=L81maEBjvgc

    Listen to this song while watching. You'll love it.

  • 0:21 groovin' to his own tune XD

  • @squirttle92 That is probably the single best comment in the universe.

  • @nan062 I have to agree. A lot of people who want wild creatures as pets aren't too bright. Just look at all the people who get mauled by lions and that chimp that ripped the woman's face off. They lose their fear of people. At least leoram1991 did her homework before she got the owl, or she would've never been able to raise him from a chick.

  • @squidoogeek thanks for your comment, your right :) although i didnt do my homework i was raised around these birds and my parents ran 2 falconary centres but agree definatly people should know what there doing before getting these kinds of birds

  • he's absolutely beautiful! i recently read that book "wesley" about a barn owl... it goes into all the things involved in raising an owl... it's not easy! respect!

  • do da boogy babe lol

  • 0:19 giggity XD

  • You're owl has some swag

  • damn australian laws forbid civilians from having predatory birds for pets! damn tham!

  • @nan062 well said, not to mention weight control, etc.

  • this is such a funny video i loved it do you think you can make a video of him flying?

  • owl's got hip hop movez

  • This is the coolest pet to have, I get the pleasure of having screech owls who leave us presents in our back yard (Dead rabbits, ground hogs, etc)

  • ohh i reliezed u didnt buy it they are ilegile to have as pets

  • how much was he?

  • so it flies around then comes back to you after?

  • I see how did you go about training him did you bribe him with a mouse i was thinking of getting an owl when im more settled somewhere.

  • Do you have to clip his wings to stop him flying away ?

  • @welshfluteplayer no we dont, at the point in which this was filmed he was too young to fly but now hes trained to fly to your fist and then tied up when hes not flying;

  • @welshfluteplayer do i have to cut your fingers to prevent you to response on this response?

  • you need to find the song from Q's Juke Joint called stomp by the Brothers Johnson and play that in the background...loved the video ;)

  • awwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!

  • where did you buy an owl????

  • I just learned something new! I never knew they do not move their eyes! Cute owl! :)

  • Owly has grown quite a bit. : )

  • Oh no he didn't!

    Haha, seriously though, your owl is gorgeous.

  • @xharleenxquinnzelx omg lol! totally!

  • @DragonLuver12357 Haha! Someone agrees! That's all I hear in my head when I see this. "Oh hell no! Oh no he didn't!"

  • this owl makes me think of that song G-Get Up And Dance..lol beautiful owl

  • Your own is BEAUTIFUL! And he looks happy..it's nice to see that he's free in the yard and he moves around freely. I hate to see birds caged up.

  • teach him to wag his wing back forth while moving his head and say, 'oh no you didnt'

  • yeeeahhhh yeaaahhhhh gettin down wit ya bad self

  • How can you be sure it does not fly away? I want an owl so bad, but it aint gonna happen! You are lucky :)

  • lol dance it out hehehe so cute!

  • @elmetalico99: although he could be judging disstance i think he is also trying to position his head so that he can hear better

  • An owl is a pretty cool bird to have. We have 3 toucans that stomp around too.

    Gilbert Keel Bill, Sasha smaller Keel Bill, And Erkle im not sure what kind he is.

  • What a beautiful owl :D <3

  • why is he doing that with his head?

  • @elmetalico99 This is Amazinbean2 (leorams sis and my owl). Owls eyes are fixed in their head so the cant move their eyes like we can so have to move their whole head instead. And the circular motion is him judging distances by checking from diffrent directions.

  • @leoram1991 Funfact, owls have their pinna around their eyes, so he is also listening to things by looking at them.

  • @elmetalico99 when they shake their head they can focus more and they see things better

  • I have 1 to named happy: i fly him at his full weight. That's like 300 gr how much do you fly yours?

  • @viirruuss i dont know youd have to ask my sister shes the one that flys him hes her bird really shes amazinbean2 on youtube , aw cute name happy, we have a european eagle owl named Columbis lol i love that name haha

  • Gorgeous bird my friend! looks like your taking care of him/her very well. beautiful feathers and happily hopping about! well done! I'm rather jealous due to my state laws about raising owls:( all the more reason to move to somewhere better!!

  • Is it a lot of work to take care of your owl? xD

  • ohh man i wish we could get these in australia :(

  • Your owl is lovely. You've probably been asked this a lot, but where is it legal to have an owl as a pet?

  • @Masquerade37 the usa is not unless u have a license in the uk it is
