Man Can't Contain His Excitement Over His First Owl Encounter
Malorie Thompson
A man who appeared to be at work happened to have such an experience and he couldn't contain his excitement.

The man, who was wearing a building maintenance uniform, pulled out his camera when he spotted an owl on the roof. Instead of watching from afar, the man took himself all the way to the roof to get a closer look at the majestic animal.
Owls can be a bit elusive and since many are nocturnal, it can be hard to catch one during the daylight hours.

This man wasn't about to let the opportunity disappear, and he carefully approached the owl and zoomed in with his camera. Amazingly, the bird seemed to turn and stare right at him!
The man panned the camera back and forth between his excited face and the very close owl. From the looks of it, it was really an incredible experience!

The person who filmed the video told ViralHog they "Recorded this about 5 days ago and didn't think it would get this sort of attention. Enjoy."
