This morning I had been hearing crows mobbing something. Finally looked out the kitchen window. A Great Horned Owl is perched in a tree just behind the backyard fence. Have the scope on him now. Took some home video through it, looks like it should turn out. Wicked looking bird. If you are in the neighborhood, drop by.
