:o

I thought eagles & owls didn't get along... is that not true?  I remember twice on N2B an owl late at night bothering Mom.

This area is such a peaceable kingdom with everyone getting along.  I wonder if this might be a young barred owl?  Could be s/he's no more experienced in all the protective posturing than the young eagle?  Hoo knows.....

I believe it is a young Owl too. An adult would have finished the food.

I agree Finn and Mp, it's a young owl.

Remembering Mom being harassed by owls at N1 when she was brooding and couldn't fight back. And then there was the pair of GHOs shopping out N2 with Dad chasing them off at night and being knocked off the nest by a direct hit from the back. Always thought most of these incidents might have been owlet fledglings feeling their oats. They live together in close proximity and the owls breed earlier than the eagles and protect their "territory" and young just like eagles do.

I think that's a Great Horned Owl, Finn, what with the ears and all.  But I'm no expert!  :)
Use the talents you possess: for the woods would be very silent if no birds sang except the best.
