Sjoerd, I don't think owls migrate, at least not Great Horned Owls. I looked him up in our bird books, and owls change hunting territory, but...
Welcome from a small (semi-organic) farm in central Texas! Please let us know where you are (Missouri, zone 6 for example) and what you want to...
Early this morning the owl stopped by to say "goodbye" and flew away. My husband heard an owl call and thought it was pretty close to the house....
We had a power outage at 5 a.m. on the second day of the New Year--sure hope Toni's mother's prognostication doesn't hold true for us! When the...
On a cooking site I just read a thread about "What to do with leftover champagne." Are they kidding? Leftover? Champagne? I fear for the younger...
I am not reading this post to my hens. They would be grossed out, as well as terrified. :eek:
Happy Birthday! Hope you start off the New Year with a great celebration!
[ATTACH] Early this morning (5 a.m.) we had strong winds, thunder, lightning, and rain. As soon as it was light enough to see (7:30 a.m.), we went...
Eileen, thank you for taking the time and effort to look up the owls. We had no idea of what was going on, and our identification books didn't...
Oh my, that had never occurred to me, that there might be more than one owl! We have only seen one at a time, and believe me, we have been keeping...
Happy Birthday! Having you here on the Stew will guarantee a happy New Year for the members--love your posts!
Sjoerd, the trail camera is working fine--so far we have seen a fox and found that we have a doe trotting through the backyard rather frequently....
This morning our owl was still in the mesquite, but had shifted his perch to a higher branch, and wasn't so fluffed out as before. I put out raw...
LIcenter, that is reassuring. I do hope our owl is either a juvenile, or has decided this is a safe place to stay, or is just resting up from...
Sjoerd, that doesn't sound anything like the chili I make, but it sure sounds good! A couple of quick questions--is the chocolate the bitter...
Mart, I wondered about one eye being less open than the other. It can fly--it flew into the mesquite while we were going to the barn, and then...
And a very Happy New Year to you Frank! Your Garden Stew makes many people happy, so thank you. (No, you didn't make me feel old--I'm still 17 at...
I love #1--around here it's called the "Darwin Principle," especially when two good old boys do something and only one survives to tell the tale!
We had our first owl visit today. Walking out to the barn to bring the hens in, we saw a Great Horned Owl in our old mesquite tree. It flew down...
Oh yes, Parmesan Reggiano sliced super thin on top of pasta or a green salad is about as close to heaven as I'll ever get! My favorite snack is...
