So cold looking, even Mr Owl looks cold.

I almost missed the first one you posted.

Such lovely photos, thank you for sharing them with me.

Wish I had a pix to post, but we had a Great Horned Owl in our chicken coop a few years back.

It was about 2am in the summer, and the windows were all open, and the coop is nearest to our bedroom window. The chickens were clucking up a storm, so Husband and I went to investigate.

A Great Horned Owl was ROOSTING in with my hens! He didn’t hurt a one, and he had to have come up the ramp into the coop, just like the hens do for the night.

We opened all the doors, and using a blanket, Husband shooed him out. He passed by me, and his wing-tip touched my cheek; but that bird was silent. Not a sound from those wings.

Death From Above, LOL! (Those hens don’t know how lucky they were!)
