As an aside, this post’s been doing the rounds online, and on one such round at r\/BeAmazed<\/a> somebody mentioned the subreddit for r\/owlsintowels. This one comment brought 1200 or so new subscribers – so thank you to u\/Virtu-92 for the shout out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The original video<\/strong><\/a> from 10 Jun 2023 is on YouTube, posted (and edited) by Paige Galdieri (@_thepaigepage on Instagram<\/a> and TikTok<\/a>). Paige is the sister of Andrew Galdieri, the man in the video holding this awesome owl.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
