Pictures of the day: 1 November 2012 An owl who is afraid of flying outside in big open spaces has been given his own red brick house.

"He is a bit of a wuss as he doesn't like flying in big open spaces," said owner Janet Southard, who runs the Wild Arena photography company, based inside Knowsley Safari Park near Liverpool.Picture: Mark Bridger / Rex Features
