To animate,

Since I did the owl myself,I have included it with my supplies..Do not use this animation on any other tutorial..

Copy Merged tag and paste into Animation shop.

Duplicate this 4 X's = 5 frames

on 1st frame--edit--select all-{on Owl} (1st frame--select all) Back on tag, propagate paste and paste into selected frame...

When done-- Change your frame properties to 

#1 frame = 100

#2-4 = 50

#5 = 150..

View and when happy save as GIF.
