It's generally frowned upon. Birds spend their lives collecting enough energy (food, water) to survive (find more food, defend territory, mate, etc). If a bird reacts to a fake call, it's wasting energy that could've been used for something actually useful, which lowers the bird's chance of survival.

Seconding hobbii, though I mostly buy their cotton yarns. They have rotating sales that change every week on Tuesday morning-ish Denmark time (each lasts 2 weeks), so the trick is to wait until the yarn you want is on sale.

Waiting for hunting leasons or food delivery?

I suppose it doesn't matter, since they're adorable regardless.

I imagine they voice some strong opinions. Are those both juveniles?

Whoops lol. That happens to me a lot with the smaller birds I try to get pictures of.

They are indeed tiny horns. Maybe they'll show up a bit better in this pic

Nope, not in Victoria. It must be the right time of year for owls.
