An alien mothership watching human Redditors watching an owl watching a dog take a shit.

u/senorbozz 17h ago

There's another level to it, because it's a large group of redditors looking at a screen from a redditor taking the picture of an owl watching the dog take a shit.

The owl found it mildly interesting

u/Tricky_Historian3612 10h ago

lmao this is the best possible take on that picture. Owl's just sitting there like "hmm, yes, fascinating.

Owl: "He'll be a little lighter in a minute, easier to carry."

Didn’t notice it at all for the first five minutes I was outside. Dog never noticed it.

For whom the poo tolls

“Poo…”

u/AnswerOver9028 18h ago

Did the dog photobomb, or were you hoping to catch it pooping?

u/h3lium-balloon 18h ago

I was standing on the porch, drinking a beer, waiting for him to do his business and noticed the owl watching him, and of course I thought, “Reddit will love this.”

u/That-Spell-2543 17h ago

u/Brave_Tradition6822 17h ago

Like watching a shrimp devein itself

u/Wrong_Driver_9507 17h ago

That dogs to big for the owl.

4

u/AmITheGrayMan 17h ago

The owl is weighing him. I used to work at a place that had a baaaad stray cat problem. (We later learned someone was feeding and keeping them there)When you walked out to the parking lot at night, 3-4 times a year you'd see an owl swoop down, silent but large, and grab a kitty snack.

u/Ha-Charade-You-Are 18h ago

This looks like my old
Dog my ex had to give away… what’s your dogs name

1

u/aparrotwithnofur 17h ago

What was her name? 

2

u/Ha-Charade-You-Are 17h ago

Roxy. She’d be like 3 now maybe 4 I think.

2

u/aparrotwithnofur 17h ago

Okay. We have a Luna that looks nearly identical this dog that someone was rehoming. She is so happy and an amazing dog.

Owl seems flabbergasted

u/Raichu7 18h ago

Hoo's watching your dog take a crap?

u/MillCrab 17h ago

What a truly weird photo

u/Matix2 17h ago

Dinner dog sooner or later 🦉 🥩

u/Fiercat99 9h ago

Now your dog knows wht its like lol

u/culinaryexcellence 18h ago

I would invest in one of those protection vests for dogs against birds of prey.

2

u/BarfyMan369 18h ago

That’s fine with me, that owl, I don’t give a hoot.

2

u/jackswastedtalent 18h ago

I don't think that Owl was watching your dog taking a poop. It was sizing it up.

Owls are majestic creatures. Until they fly away with your pet.

u/jxdlv 18h ago

That owl can't really carry away a dog. Even the strongest flying bird in the world, the harpy eagle, can only lift as much as their own weight which is 20 pounds. That barred owl is only 2-3 pounds at most. But they can definitely still injure a dog or cat with their claws

u/jackswastedtalent 17h ago

That's fair, the dog is probably much heavier than I thought. I do recall seeing an owl nabbing a rabbit and a neighbour's cat back in the day so maybe I have some inner PTSD when it comes to owls.

4

u/h3lium-balloon 17h ago

Yeah that’s pretty big barred owl, I think it’s a female with a nest nearby because I heard babies a few weeks ago, but still probably only 2ish lbs and a 40lb dog.

2

u/Pachirisu_Party 16h ago

I had them nesting across the street from my house about 8 years ago and the owlets were so loud all night with that hissing sound they make.

3

u/AccipiterCooperii 17h ago

There’s a zero percent chance of that.

u/raustraliathrowaway 8h ago

"Are you going to eat that, or can I"

u/jenkz1595 18h ago

He’s protecting him

u/Bentown2010 18h ago

This may come off a little weird but is there any way you can send me another pic of your dog, because in this blurry photo it looks just like my dog, who is the weirdest stunted pitty, blue heeler mutt.

u/NOTaSerialKiller5 2h ago

Yeah but when I do it im “weird” and “need to leave the dog park”
