silent flight

owl in the desert

Within seconds…he vanished…

in total silence…

Did you know that an owl has a fringe on the front edge of their wing that silences their flight?

Keep silent and go about your business.  This will bring you the greatest success.

    No, I did not know that about the fringe. Talk about “fringe benefits!” :) And yes, lucky you.
