Great Gray Owl dwarfed by Ponderosa Pines
Though it is the longest of owls thanks to that tail, there are some mighty trees that will remind us we are all tiny beings compared to them.

Oh wow! That’s really cool. When I think of rain forests, it’s always like +40 °C, impenetrable vegetation, super tall exotic trees, big snakes, huge spiders, bright colored frogs and so on. Not owls on pine trees.
Yes, it’s far from that typical image.
As a related fact about misleading ecosystems, Antarctica is the world’s largest desert with around 50mm of annual rain on the non-coastal areas!
I recall seeing a documentary about some cold desert in china. So, plenty of sand and dry air, but also freezing temperatures. Strange place.
