Delivery from Hogwarts

When Steve and I got home from work yesterday we saw a few of our neighbors looking up into a tree. What a surprise to see a great horned owl perched in the branches! Isn't he beautiful? It's too bad I didn't have a telephoto lens to get a closer picture, but through the binoculars this fella has bright yellow eyes and enormous talons that wrapped around the tree branch. (Glad I'm not a squirrel!) The crows were going absolutely nuts, squawking and circling, but my owl friend was just chillin'.
