On Thursday I posted a picture of the Powerful Owl -
and Con pointed out it was minus its tail feathers. The speculation was
that it was molting. However, I went back just now (Saturday) after
hearing it was munching on a possum - and took another photo that
clearly shows tail feathers.

Theories: (a) Thursday's picture
contains an optical illusion, (b) feathers have re-grown very rapidly,
(c) a pair of owls sharing the same perch?
