These folks had the corner of their wall blasted off by a bolt of lightning, and they fixed it beautifully. #Kintsugi

A corner of a brick wall has been blasted away. The owners have filled in it with something like concrete, but with a beautiful golden flash of lightning.

A rescue morepork owl before and after a bath at the Wildbase Recovery Center. He'd contracted some sort of bacterial infection, possibly from a contaminated waterway wildbaserecovery.co.nz #owls

Miniature owl maybe six to eight inches tall. Before bath he looks like a poorly made Halloween bat toy standing on two wobbly legs with his wings partly outstretched for balance. After his bath he looks like a proper bonsai owl and would probably nip if someone wasn't holding his feet firmly
