Morning all.
I'm sitting here sipping coffee, listening to two Owls call back and forth to each other outside by my chicken coop.
Had some bird of prey kill a hen yesterday, ate just the head and neck. Was one of the wife's favorites, so she is upset and it's my problem now. I had seen a great horned owl in the chicken run previously, so I'm pretty sure who dunnit
Considering showing the owls my sporting clay prowess and my Silver Pigeon, but I do like seeing them and hearing the banter between them.
Edit: Went to let the chickens out for the day, only to see a Great horned owl perched on the T-post at the back of the chicken run. It was probably looking for the body it left yesterday. Gonna close off the un-covered side of the run (i have gamebird mesh over the main run, they have pasture access through a back gate).
