Oklahoma celebrity owl found shot to death, game wardens investigating (this is Mrs. Tiger). I was surprised to see this story on my local news this morning since it's not a local story.  I've watched this cam a few times.  It's a cam of GHOs nesting in a flower box in Oklahoma City.

Oh, no!!!! This made me cry - I've watched that cam, too, especially the entire first year. Most times I like birds more than people. This is one of those times.  >:( :'(

I'm sorry, T40.  It is very sad news.  She was a beauty and a great mom.
