From Hancock County Naturlalists
About 1 second after this photo was taken this morning, 2 things were learned:
Owlet learned he could not fly!
I learned Owlets can swim!
Its flight lasted about 5 feet and SPLASH...right in the middle of the river! It just kind of was a blob in the water. I am thinking to myself...OH NO am going to have to go on a rescue mission! After a few seconds it started using its wings to paddle itself through the water. However, instead of going to the opposite bank it came back to where it took off, but a little more wet!
The Watch Series is a good point to start. I hope you like it!
I did read the first few pages when I downloaded it, and like they style of it. I am looking forward to getting to it.
Just looked up the coat of arms and it also has my other favorite animal, the hippo! Double win!
Now I'm even more looking forward to it!
Pratchett loves wordplay and makes allusions to things that exist on roundworld. As an owl afficionado you surely caught the Mor(e)pork in the City name. That's where the owl comes from.
Yup, the Morepork was in the Owl of the Year for a few rounds, and that was when Discworld kept getting brought up.
I've heard about it long before, but I generally avoid longer series. I feel ready to check it out now though.
