Visited by an owl







Underway between Barcelona and Ibiza, this enormous owl came to visit us. We were heading headwind, motoring, with around 10-12 knots of wind in our face when this bird showed up from nowhere, desperately attempting to catch our arch with her claws to get some rest. Every time she tried, she lost her grip again and got kicked back in the air by the strong wind. It was totally heartbreaking to see her fail time after time while she got weaker and weaker. After maybe ten attempts, her power was gone and she got pushed backed so hard that we lost the sight of her somewhere far away in the ocean.
