Description
EuroAsian or "Eagle" Owl posing for the camera. This beautiful owl is the same type of owl that escaped from the Central Park zoo in 2023 named Flaco. Flaco (March 15, 2010 – February 23, 2024) was a male Eurasian eagle-owl who escaped his long-time enclosure at Central Park Zoo in New York City after someone cut the protective netting in February 2023. Flaco subsequently took up residence in and around Central Park.
In February 2024, one year after his escape, Flaco died, likely after colliding with a building. I am a owl and rapture advocate for the preservation of the species.
This Euroasian Eagle owl was the***Winner 1st Place Wild Animals Contest on Fineart America!***
