As the Swedish summer sun dipped below the trees, this beautiful Long-eared Owl settled among blooming hawthorn branches, bathed in a sea of golden light. Moments like these are what keep me returning to the wild, never knowing what nature will reveal next.

This is the face of someone who knows you clearly don’t own an air fryer.
I was skeptical of them for a decent bit, and while I have the Breville Smart Oven instead of a dedicated air fryer, I am now a believer! Way better for many things than standard baking. I’m with the owl on this one.
I would get one but my counter space and my wife both say no :(
The Breville has almost exclusively replaced our stove, since it’s just the 2 of us, so it’s earned its real estate. It lives on a section of counter not big enough for much anything else.
