[QUOTE="carleb, post: 2747154, member: 2353"] I have a fairly high number of owls that hang around my homestead. Hear them all the time. Once in a while, one or two will come up by the house for several evenings in a row to hunt grasshoppers or cicadas. They walk around on the ground quite a bit when they hunt them. I find an individual owl feather in the yard every few days during that time. The squirrel population around the house goes up and then they all disappear for a while. I just suppose it's those owls getting them too. They're just part of nature and the food chain. Kinda cool to watch. Sometimes it's amazing how close they will let you get before they fly off. I don't stalk them, but just do the yard work as normal. Many, many years ago when I was a kid, I found one with a broken wing down by the creek. I had the crazy idea I would help it, or whatever. Bad idea!! He was a vicious SOB and chased me away from my good intentions in a hurry! [/QUOTE]
