I love Owls!
Me Quiero Las Lechuzas!
I like owl jewlery......but I never knew that there was so much mythology related to owls......several websites actually, check out a few.....
(Notice, there seems to be some connection between owls and nudity.....my kind of animal!)
U.S.A: if you hear an Owl-cry you must return the call, or else take off an item of clothing and put it on again inside-out.
Transylvania: farmers used to scare away Owls by walking round their fields naked.
Mongolia, Inner: Owls enter the house by night to gather human fingernails.
Lorraine: spinsters go to the woods and call to the Owl to help them find a husband.
Luxembourg: Owls spy treasures, steal them and hoard them.
Madagascar: Owls join witches to dance on the graves of the dead.
Malawi: the Owl carries messages for witches.
Malaya: Owls eat new-born babies.
Babylon: Owl amulets protected women during childbirth.
Wales: an Owl heard among houses means an unmarried girl has lost her virginity.
If a woman is pregnant and she alone hears an owl hoot outside her house at night then her child will be blessed.
