OWLS PLAY TUG-OF-WAR

TUGGING on the wing of his sibling, this needy owl is after some attention. While two owls settle down to rest, a third still wants to have fun and clasps hold of his brother’s wing. The little owls were photographed in Beaconsfield, Buckinghamshire by sales manager Dean Mason. The 48-year-old, of Bournemouth, Dorset, says: “The three siblings are doing exactly what siblings do - playing combined with the odd argument.”
