Finally! A good closeup of this wonderful devil! on Flickr.
Via Flickr:
in the medieval iconography of the devil, he was often depicted with faces all over his body to emphasize how counter to nature he was.

Owl and Mouse, Minnesota
Photograph by Tom Samuelson, My Shot
Great gray owls come south from Canada into Minnesota during the winter to find food. This owl was on the north shore of Lake Superior, just south of Two Harbors, Minnesota. We happened to find him as the sun was setting, and in the evening light, we were able to be in a position to see an owl that was hunting when a mouse came out, and the owl was quick to pounce and pick up an evening meal.
oh dear
