Guess where this barn owl has been found taking a nap this morning?

An barn owl has been found nestled in the engine of a plane on Thursday morning. The bird was discovered sleeping in between the jet engine propeller blades of a Virgin Australia plane shortly before take-off in Sydney. The owl was saved during pre-flight check of the Boeing 737-800. (www.airlive.net) More...

"jet engine propeller blades"?? I never knew jet engines had propeller blades, I learnt something else new today. Just nit-picking.
