What a day!!!
I was blessed to have 2 visits from a small (possibly male or juvenile) barred owl this afternoon in my yard.
“Blessings” like this can be a double edged sword and the sharp side of the story is that I may have lost my little quail… not yet sure, but the owl was obviously hungry and watched the yard birds carefully until making a strike. This “hit” happened just out of my view…so not positive of the outcome.
