yesterday morning (4:30 am) my wife opened the front door and let Gauge out. She was startled when a big Barred owl flew away from the front tree, which is only 8 feet from the front door.
Well he was back this morning. I reckon he is after mice, so more power to him! Kind of freaky knowing he was so close, and I would imagine he has been there most every night , we just never knew it!
He is about 16 to 20 inches tall, and has a 3 foot wingspan!
