Neat picture Greg. My great grandson loves owls, I have to show him when he wakes up. I had 2 owls setting on my windmill years ago, one on the fan and one on the tail. What a picture ! but it was too dark to print. |

| Great picture. We seldom see an owl around here any more. Back when I was growing up we used to hear screech owls in the trees beside the house at night. The last owl I have seen up close was one I clobbered with the pickup one night. He took out the left headlight assembly. Pretty expensive sighting. |

You're right, you don't get to see them that often and not that big either! Nice pic! ------------- "Allis-Express" 19?? WC / 1941 C / 1952 CA / 1956 WD45 / 1957 WD45 / 1958 D-17 |

I agree Ted seems your guilty till you prove yourself innocent, unless your a criminal, then its seems they have to prove beyond any possible doubt they are guilty. ------------- 1938 B, 79 Dynamark 11/36 6spd, 95 Weed-Eater 16hp, 2010 Bolens 14hp |

This thread reminds me of an old riddle: What's the difference 'tween a bad marksman, and a constipated owl??? The marksman shoots and shoots, but never hits...
