Currently known as Barry, the owl has intense black eyes and elegant poufs of white feathers streaked with brown and gray. The owl was an overnight sensation, not as flamboyant as the Mandarin duck two years ago but no less magnetic. Barry is not nesting, as owls haven’t been found to nest in Central Park. Kristal learned of the owl from Manhattan Bird Alert, a Twitter feed that posts bird sightings throughout the city. So, after his third failed solo attempt, he paid $10 to go on an owl walk with DeCandido.
