Please remove that bug from my head!
While watching a burrowing owl nest on the plains of Colorado, the male owl suddenly flew back to the nest with his catch of the day. It was a sphinx moth. As he was trying to transfer the moth to his female mate, he accidentally put it on her head. It was a very humorous moment. Eventually, she did get the moth in her mouth and ran back to her burrow to feed her owlets.
