Here at Fudd Hollow Farm we are huge fans of Molly the owl and her webcam! She even has her own blog!
So we thought we'd do our part and find some Net-mom-approved sites for her fans. Hope you enjoy the facts, fun, crafts, and even owl cookie recipes we've found!
Owl Crafts
Make Your Own Barn Owl Finger Puppet
Other parts of the site offer beautiful coloring pages, a print and make a barn owl mobile, a word search, and even a recipe for barn owl "pellet" truffle treats! Since the site is from the UK Barn Owl Trust, note that "double cream" can be substituted by heavy cream, and you might try graham crackers for "digestive biscuits."
DTLK's Owl Crafts
Not all these are about Barn Owls, but whoo can resist them?

Uses refrigerated roll sugar cookie dough, M&Ms, and cashews for beaks; these are too cute!
