Nocturnal Worlds

Powerful Owl

Close your eyes and open your ears…You are a Powerful Owl, dozing in the hollow of a gum tree. Twilight is descending and a colony of Grey-Headed Flying Foxes chatter happily. Relax, and let the gentle whispers of the breeze and bush wash over you… a soothing balm against the noise of the city beyond.
