Owls!!! Don’t you just love them? 🦉 Get ready to soar into the fascinating world of these majestic, "wise" birds with Denver Holt of the Owl Research Institute! As a leading expert in owl research and conservation since the late 80s, Denver is the perfect guide to dive deep into the origin, history, and current status of these incredible creatures.

In this episode, Denver brings a wealth of knowledge that will leave you saying, “Whoo knew?” From the tiny sparrow-sized owls to those with an astonishing 6-foot wingspan, did you know there are over 250 different types of owls around the world? They’re found everywhere—except Antarctica—meaning there’s likely one living just around the corner from you! 🦉🌍

But owls aren’t just fascinating creatures—they’re steeped in mystery and mythology. We tackle some of the most common myths, including why they’re often seen as omens of bad luck or doom, messengers for witches, or the embodiment of wisdom, à la Hedwig from Harry Potter.

If you’ve ever wondered what makes these enigmatic birds so captivating, or if you just want to learn about the most recognized bird in a fun and engaging way, this episode is a must-listen! So tune in and let’s give a hoot about owls! 🎧
