I think that's a Great Horned Owl, Finn, what with the ears and all.  But I'm no expert!  :)
You are probably right.  I was relying more on the daytime hunting aspect.

Hi Matisse, I think that prey is the same one the owl has had most of the day but hasn't been able to eat it because of the juveniles hanging around it.  I never got a really good look at it but thought it was some type of waterfowl.  The owl will probably have to wait until it's dark and fly it away somewhere  :)

Just looked back -- MpMom has a couple of great captures of the prey as the owl carries it off at post 172 and 174.  Thanks, MP!

The Owl seems fine Willi. It is a juvie Owl or whatever they are called. Hasn't been left alone all day.
