I love owls, but I wouldn’t resort to craziness in order to help them.
My brother lives in the country. When I house sit for him, I love to sit on the deck at 2 in the morning and catch a listen and look at the owls.
We’ve seen the eyes of bobcats, but never really got good looks.
When we lived on land, we lived in a smaller southern city. We had Barred Owls all over.
They are fascinating. Out on the front porch late while puffing on my pipe, a huge white owl (barred?) landed on the gutter about two feet above my head. With their keen eyesight I'm sure he must have seen me but he perched there for a few moments before moving on.
Where I used to live the county has a raptor center which has cages for injured birds of prey to recover from injuries. Anyway, my son's Eagle project was to build a cage for owls. It was about the size of a single car garage. We made it with good lumber and chain link fencing. Its first resident was a great horned owl that would clack its beak if you did anything to upset him.

We love them too. Also the coyotes and bats. I generally love living in the country.
