My favorite animal.

My favorite animal is the Horned Owl. The horned owl is named that because it looks like it has two horns on its head but actually it’s just the feathers sticking up. It’s two horns are called plumicorns. A horned owl has golden eyes which makes them very cool. Male horned owls can grow up 18 to 25 inches long and have a wingspan between 35 to 60 inches long. Female horned owl are the same as male owl but larger in size. A male weighs about 3 pounds while the female weighs about 4 1/2 pounds. Male horned owls mate for life and start at the age of 2 years old. Horned owls have very large territories. Male and Female defend them self and young ones from other species. Horned owls don’t build there nest but instead they take abandoned nest of another bird. Females horned owls lay from 2 to 3 eggs each year. Sometimes they can lay up to 5 eggs. Horned owls don’t migrate at all. Horned owls enemy is just other owls.       Horned Owls

      Have you read Guardians of Ga'hoole? If not you should. It is a fictional book series that has some facts about owls, you just need to read carefully to find them. There are also one or two movies as well.

My favorite Country

The Domican Republic shares half of an island with Hispaniola. The  island  was originally settled by  Native Americans. When Columba’s arrived in 1942mon his first voyage to the new world, he clamied the island for Spain. At the time the island was inhabited by thounds of Native Americans. The number of Taino people which is the same Navitive Americans declined the island rapidly due to diseases brought by Europeans such as smallpox. The city of Santo Domingo was established in 1946 and was the first permanent settlement in the new world. In 1967 Spain ceded control of the western third of the island to France, In 1804 this part would become the country of Haiti. The Haitians would conquer the rest of the island in 1821, but the eastern two thirds would be grantited independence as the country the Domican Republic in 1844.   Domican Rebulic
