Einen Vogel Haben! Rare Ural Owl Spotted in Germany

From Israel Kacar

Ural owl

Sunday evening I get a call from a friend: Israel, there's an owl sitting in our bush, come quickly..."

Shortly before sunset, off I go - and there's an Ural owl (goosebumps included).

This species has not been seen in NRW (North Rhine-Westphalia) before... The location is not disclosed in this regard.
