What is owling?

"Owling. Because planking is so two months ago."

What is owling?:
Owling is an internet meme that is becoming popular on the heels of planking, another popular meme that was centered mostly on Facebook. As the term implies, owling means perching on something the way an owl does.

An owler is, well, someone who does owling - just a human being acting like an owl.

Be careful though when using the term "owling" because it also means "The offense of transporting wool or sheep out of England contrary to the statute formerly existing." Furthermore, an owler is "One who owls; esp., one who conveys contraband goods."

With that said, check out the owling meme photos below.

Enjoy!
