There are several videos of owls regularly shared on social media. However most of those videos either show the birds resting on trees or hiding in plain sight with their incredible camouflaging skills. What is common in those videos is that mostly the owls are seen sitting. This clip posted on Reddit, however, is different from the usual ones. It shows an owl running.
