## Caption

Me to myself: This is annoying. This conversation is annoying. This person is annoying. I hope I’m hiding my face well. 

My face: 🦉

Hoo don’t give a hoot? This bird. Is resting owl face really a thing? Yes. Yes it is. Several key anatomical features contribute to the owl’s signature Judgy McJudgeface: large, wide eyes, bony sockets called sclerotic rings, and bristly, pointed feathers or tufts called plumicorns, think scowling eyebrows, make a formidable face. Combined with a hooked, forward facing beak, and you’ve got a recipe for a face that dares your colleague to prolong the morning meeting with one more question. Do you feel lucky?
