Barred Owl
There have been 2 ‘baby’ owls in the yard the past few days. They are so cool! Todd saw one dive down and eat a mouse earlier tonight! They make the strangest squeaking noises. Todd said that they are likely still babies because they have fuzzy feathers on their heads - but they are big. The one in this pic was on the roof earlier - it was so close Todd could have touched it.
It was glaring at Pearl (our cat) through the window as if it wanted to eat her!

Cool pic. I haven’t seen an owl of that type before.

I think it wanted to eat you two.

Hi Amie!
It’s been too long since I’ve seen you
Sooo sorry about your knee issue. But it WILL get better! I had ITB Syndrome (if that’s what the issue is), and I did that ol’ standard stretch against the wall and took it easy (swimming would be good). Anyway, hopefully I’ll see you soon - even if it’s not on the road.
The OWL photo is so awesome…and I love hearing Todd speak about the spider silk ’stuff.’ Man, he’s totally brilliant…and adorable…and he cooks!
