Give a Hoot....

Saturdays Critters

 Great Horned Owl.
He lives in a tree in my Daughter's backyard.  I think he is sleeping.
 Great Horned Owls are great and fearless hunters.

What a great neighbor critter! I wish we had one around. I don't think I've ever seen one in the wild.

Oh, very cool! I would love to have a resident owl.
I like your fun header.

The owl buddy. I think he's a she. The females are bigger. And she's pretty big. I found a cool rodent skull in the poop! Lol! Just helping out the cats! :)

They are such neat neighbors. So lucky to have one near. We have a pair that live somewhere between our house and the river and I love it when they are blocks away from each other at night, chatting.

I never get to see owls so this was very neat.

So cute! He does look sleepy.

What a gift to see - I always love seeing owls...their silent flight and the way they look at you, just takes my breath. Thanks for sharing!
