Here's a video in Japanese. I don't understand a word, but the owl is pretty funny.

And here's a partial translation that I shamelessly cut and paste from a forum talking about this video:

Japanese speaker here to give a summary:

The owl is a White-faced Scops Owl (about 20cm in height, noted for its orange eyes, small owl), named Popo.

When Popo is shown a Barn Owl (or Ashy-faced Owl) (found in many parts of the world, about 35cm in height), Popo puffs out his(?) feathers against the other owl since the Barn Owl is, according to Popo, of lower rank.

When faced with a Eurasian Eagle-Owl (found in the African continent, about 75cm in height, large owl), Popo slims down to half his size and narrows his eyes to look like a tree branch in the eyes of the Eurasian Eagle-Owl. Since Popo's stomach feathers are a non-camouflaging white color, he keeps twisting his body so that his back is always facing the enemy owl.

Owls have thick feathers and their actual bodies are not that big, so they can change sizes by puffing or flattening their feathers. The White-faced Scops Owl is among the most adept in controlling their feathers.

Obviously the gay looking one was Bumblebee, and the cool looking one was Starscream.

They both suck though for not making transformer noises when transforming!

You know what's also weird, involves birds and is also asian? This North Korean kids show http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N6OQJxe8ic0

And Farfour Mouse, I've been watching kids tv from oppressive political situations because I need real hobbies. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TrieBhaGgHM *warning: this portrays a Mickey Mouse rip-off's beating death at the hands of Mossad

I'm done derailing this thread with uninteresting videos. Carry on.
