That’s not true. https://apnews.com/article/fact-check-photo-owl-sitting-crossed-legs-822881945319.
Cool image though and funny meme.
Ahhh yeah you can see it, there’s a bit of fluff that looks like it’s the right leg going over, but it’s just fluff.
Owls are 90% fluff, so this checks out.
You’re a lot of fun!!
I mean hey its important to note that its not scientifically accurate. I think its a nice meme though as it really does look like criss cross applesauce.
I agree. I didn’t respond with malice… the truth just stole our collective enjoyment of the idea that an owl could and would sit criss-cross applesauce. There’s just something adorable about the notion. :)
I considered adding a /s but decided to roll with the down votes… lol
They are learning.
We need to make them some prosthesic hands.
I guess I have extra big news for you: !birdsarentreal@lemmy.world
Always remember the acronym A.V.I.A.N.:
A - Birds V - Are I - Not A - Real N -
Indian style.

This is what they look like without feathers. Demon birds.
I think that’s a hawk.
Owls have sausage eyes, they are fixed focal length and go back into their skulls, leaving very little room for a brain.
Edit: with a reverse image search, it seems I’m not the first to say this. My guess is that this is just dodgy taxidermy - maybe it was an owl, but taxidermy is notoriously bad at eyes.

Americans are goofy af “criss cross applesauce” bitch that don’t even rhyme
I need an example pronunciation of how it doesn’t rhyme because the only way I can hear it in my head rhymes. I’ve never heard of this name for the seating method though.
Cross rhymes with boss, toss, moss, loss, Ross.
Sauce rhymes with horse, coarse, force.
So for them to rhyme you would either have to say “crawse” or “Soss”
“Soss” is how we pronounce “sauce” and I don’t know where you’re finding the “r” sound.
