Optical particulates

As Rosalie ran onto the bank she excitedly said “Look we’re invisible!”  The Owls on the bank became confused and said “What? Who’s there?! Who’s invisible?  Are you friend or foe?”   The Little Owl says “Friend, friend.  It’s Rosalie and I who’ve become invisible but we don’t know how.”  Rosalie then says “I think the branches have some magical powers that turn things invisible”. 

Sensei walks over to the voices of Rosalie and the Little Owl and says “That’s nonsense.  Branches don’t have the power to turn things invisible.  There must be some logical explanation.  Show me the shrubbery so we can understand what is going on here." 

With the Little Owl still in her arms Rosalie takes Sensei by the wing and they disappear into the shrubbery leaving the rest of the Owls and the Horse behind.  The three of them walk when suddenly Rosalie stops and says “These are the branches that made us invisible.  When I cut the branch with my axe I could see wherever the particles land it becomes invisible.”  Sensei then told her to cut the branch.  She took her axe and began chopping.  Again the particles scattered this time landing on Sensei’s wing.  She stopped cutting so they could observe if anything happened.  Rosalie and the Little Owl exclaimed “It happened to you too!  Part of your wing is missing.”  Sensei calmly looked at its wing and said “Indeed, it appears to be missing but it is most certainly still there.”   Sensei then spread its wing and vigorously began to flap, releasing the particles and its arm begins to appear.  Rosalie then vigorously shook herself and the Little Owl and they too began to re-appear.
