Oh, we did have an owl in a tree once. He stayed for two days, I worried about my kitty. But no harm came to the cat and the owl flew off never to be seen again. grammajudybhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00562284172505849145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5434452527977390355.post-91453082904946889872012-08-18T16:59:02.767-04:002012-08-18T16:59:02.767-04:00Wow, what astonishing backyard action!

I love watching them circle high in the sky but when one lands in the yard it's a special treat. <br /><br />I've found they don't mind humans.
