these owls are huge and very strong, can be quite dangerous if you dont know how to handle them.
The claws are so strong that if it lands on your arm, and you dont have that special thick leather glove, they can pierce deep into the flesh all the way to the bone.
This is really cool! This spectacular Eurasian Eagle Owl is making a spectacle of himself! I am lucky I get to handle and feed one of these Owls at a Zoo I volunteer at, always so fun and quite a rush! "(O,O)"
Bubi! Finnish national football team is called "Huuhkajat" (Finnish for Eurasian Eagle-owls) ever since. The owl was named "Helsinki Citizen of the Year" in December 2007. Bubi-owl legend grew when Bubi came to take his "Helsinki Citizen of the Year" award on December 18th at the Olympic Stadium and when last observation of the bird was almost three months ago. Not sure where he is today.
is it football if u take the ball in ur hands and run ? nope - this is football cos u actually play it with ur feet - the real football was invented a lot before the american one so it's righteous to call it football - americans can call football whatever they like ..

@hyllaf he was last time spoted 2009, he was before that spoted in year 2008. so yeah, he takes breaks from publicity. afther all, he might have family to feed.
Yeah cuz like it couldn't get away what wth having wings and acres of open sky... must have been petrified. you can tell from its calm flapping and settled demeanour. Duh.
Hes not necessarily afraid. He has been around since January. He is some sort of urban owl. He was chosen citizen of the year few days ago. He showed up on stadium when they granted him the prize. He hangs around in downtown Helsinki and occasionally watches football on stadium.

lol if this happened in turkey we would get a shot gun and shoot the owl then cook it and eat it looooooool hilarious the comments r soo funny. is the owl band from all internationals now.
Well, good for Bubi that he lives in Finland then! =) Here the Eurasian eagle owl (Bubo bubo) has been protected since 1983. Owl soup with fresh bullets doesn't sound like a very delicious meal... :P ;)
LOL Remarkable as the owl doesn't seem to be apt to leave the stadium...perhaps he'll find something to eat? :-) Animal-loving audience, how nice! Lotsa luv...to the owl too!:-)
Why didn't the referee caution him for delaying the restart when he sat on the field, eject him for the second caution and have his 4th official escort him off?
