Three of them look like they did seven 12's in in a 5 day 40 hour week.

Then you have bottom right in an instagram pose to promote their only fans.

Follow-up question: why do they do it?

Much like a human baby, their heads are too heavy to support on their own. Once they are big enough, they'll sleep sitting up. Their leg muscles are designed in a way that their tendons will keep them locked into their branch of choice while they sleep until they actively let go.

Owls sleep like they've pounded a fifth of Jack Daniel's at a party earlier in the evening.
