DH shared this pic this morning.  I frequently hear them at night and find it relaxing falling asleep to their "whooo, whooo".  It was a kick to find out that he/they actually avail themselves to the bird bath. Totally cool!

Thank you for sharing this !

I reguarly hear an owl in some large pine trees near the house, but never see them. 

It just reminds me to make sure the little feral cat that hangs around my house is safe in an outdoor house at night.

Nice picture!  You can name him Amahl (the night visitor).

Nice pic. Love the owl.

I know the critter in our yard at night is a possum. DH found a baby possum sleeping in a bucket on our patio he throws stuff in for our compost pile.

He makes bacon on his Pit Boss. DH throws paper towels in the trash with bacon grease on it the possum chews it up in little pieces. LOL!!! Must love bacon like we do. 

We have to watch what we put in our trash can on the patio. 

We cook on the grill a lot so no way of getting rid of the possums. If they smell food they are going to show up.

Thanks for sharing!!!!

we are in suburbia and had owls years ago.  was quiet for few years, then had 2 last Spring.  

we only hear them in late winter/early spring. 

they are just awesome!  

but around here, its cut-cut-cut trees down. so i am sure they are moving on to better pastures. 

our neighbor up the street just cut down a birch tree.  other neighbor a big maple and a dying blue spruce. 

ugh, our street looks terrible.  

we will have to take down our blue spruce soon, its dying.  when we had a arborist come to look at our maple, he said they do not like our climate, too hot.  they like Oregon and the like... 

but i will replace with something native to our area that can withstand this heat and more mild winters.....
