Answer 1

One day in 1950, a little white owl was flying along the coast of Portugal when it suddenly got caught in a terrible storm. The sailors rushed over to the owl, picked it up, and examined it. The poor owl was weak and tired but, incredibly, it was alive! The sailors named the storm "Eros." The storm had blown the poor little owl far out to sea. A navy ship called HMS Eros was sailing in the Atlantic Ocean that day. The sailors on board were working on deck when all of a sudden they saw a white fluffy ball drop out of the stormy sky. It was the owl! The sailors named the lucky little owl 'Eros' and took it back to England with them. Eros spent the rest of his long life in London Zoo. He died there in 1993.
