Imagine my delight when today I discovered that my little Hibou has subtly sparkly feathers! I hadn't noticed them since he arrived a couple of weeks ago, but when the afternoon sunlight caught his teal fluff, the tips glistened as if he were still covered in dew. I did not know this was a feature! Maybe he is a very special baby owl indeed! Or maybe he has been playing with his friend the Mini Snow Wolf, and they exchanged some sparkles. (He is not afraid of the Snow Wolf because he is bigger. I have learned such charming incongruities are essential to the marvelous world of Squish.) He is very squishy and snuggly, and his tiny purple beak and toes are super sweet. The unexpected sparkles just add to his adorableness.
