Pictured are Elsie Donald, aged 7 and Eloise Whitaker, aged 6, with an American Great Horned Owl called Punk.
YOUNGSTERS were given a bird's eye view of the theatre when a group of owls flocked into The Point in Eastleigh.
A number of the birds from local display team Falconhigh visited the theatre to join youngsters who went to see the stage adaptation of children's book The Owl Who Was Afraid of the Dark.
The children were able to get up close to the winged stars, which inspired the novel about a boy who overcomes his fears, as they took up residence in the foyer of the theatre in Leigh Road.
