Many thanks to Stephanie Entwistle for sending SwimSwam this video of a Great Horned Owl swimming!

“The poster of this YouTube video lists it as being breaststroke, but I’d say that it’s a pretty good fly instead. Who knew that other species followed standard stroke technique, too? Haha! Thought your readers might enjoy this.”
They will, Stephanie. Thanks!
If you have a funny, interesting, odd and/or beautiful swimming video you’ve produced or found on the web, please share with us.
But the biggest question: is he doing double dolphin kicks off the walls?
Owls don’t stroke; Owls fly.
So its “owlfly” aka butterfly
Anyone know who’s recruiting him? He’s got good open water potential but he really needs some underwater work if he’s going to be any good at all in short course…
Whooooo knows?
Definitely butterfly! He’ll need to get more power out of his kicks if he ever wants to be competitive internationally though.
