We have a field behind our apartments, and a few years ago there were several beautiful, giant, white owls that made a nest up in the trees nearby the kids playground right at the apartments. They always came out at dusk. Flying out towards the field. We always watched them come out. I did not have my Suzi back then. I still do not know what type of owls these were. However, I have seen a couple of them back this year. I have come out late on the baclony. And sure enough, I've seen the beautiful, yet threatning owls out on the field looking for food. Oh dear, My Suzi is out on the balcony, certainly, that owl can't swoop through the balcony bars and grab her? But, it scars the living daylights out of me, I do not allow her to stay out when I see the owl in close proximity . Although the owl is gorgeous , it is scary . that thing has a enormous wing span. It's too close for comfort, and I am thinking, since their is one, their is more around. You can never be too careful!
