One spring Morning two boys named Billy and Bruce went out in the fields. They where trying To find owls to keep as a pet.poplar trees are trees that make good owls nests and good climbing trees. when the to boys where walking in the fields Bruce seed hey Billy lets see if that tree has a owl in it. Bruce climbed up the tree he saw a nest he got the eggs in his mouth and when he was trying to get down snap the branch broke when he got to the ground Billy was laughing so hard and all the eggs broke Bruce hade to eat a sardine sandwich.

The next day they went to the fields again. and this time they found a great horned owl. When he got back to his house he asks if he could keep the owl four a pet. His dad said NO!!! You have too many pets. Then he thought for a minute. And said YES! and Billy was very happy. and this time They they found a grate hornd owl the grate hornd owl Is the biggest owls in the world.

The boys went back to the fields to try to find a pet owl and this time they had there teacher try to help them. there teacher loves to find owls the two boys told there teacher all about the great horned owl. He said I know just what to do. He was going to make a little hut on 2 branches it took a long time to make the fort but we got it done. It looks very cool. The next day the maid left because Wol scared the maid off.

The owl knocked the camera out of the hole and the camera broke. When their teacher got down there teacher was burning hot. The look on are teacher’s face told us that he was burning hot with out moving his lips.

They got there pet owl and he was very little his name was wol he did not know much. Wol was very curious at that time.

Billy was riding his bike and past some kids that were throwing rocks at some thing. He looked at what they were doing they were throwing rock at a oil can and in side the oil can was a OWL! He had to save him. So he took him for a pet and named him Weeps.

In one day they entered an animal parade and dressed their animals up in silly costumes and used clothing for a doll. One day Bruce came up with a box and Bruce said, “ I can’t tell you what’s in this box”. The box had a note on it that said Surprise pet do not feed. When they were in the parade they saw a boy that had a skunk on a leash. When they were walking thru the parade the animal that was in the box got out and it was an rattlesnake that had lost it’s venom. The skunk got scared and sprayed the whole parade! Wol got creeped out and accidently let all of the animals out.

The boys decided to camp out in there cave. That night the boys were going into there cave two boys came up and said do you have a cave they did not tell them. They stared backing away. Then they said if you don’t tell us we will tie you to the tree. We will leave you there all night! When Billy was about to tell them Wol made a noise that sounded like this WWWOOOHH! And the boys ran away.

The Billy couldn’t get to school because the owls were following him. when the owls got to school and Billy got in trouble. Wol and Weeps always followed Billy to school but one day the teacher got mad and Wol and Weeps couldn’t follow Billy to school so every morning they would give them some bacon so they would not follow him to school. one day there minister came to talk about how Billy never went to church. And when he was sitting down Wol came in and he did not know how he was so he said hi with a big HHOO and the minister ran out the door.

when boys went camping they had to bring every one. They brought the owls and the Mutt on the trip. One day they went canoeing. They brought Mutt and the owls. And when the crow spotted the owls. The crows dived for the owls. The canoe tipped. They swam to shore. They did not go camping again. They decided To go canoeing and that did not go well.

That spring was the saddest spring of all Billy had to give the owls away. He give them to his friend at the fox farm. This was his last words to Wol and Weeps. TAKE CARE OF EACH OTHER! MAYBE I WILL BE BACK.
