HOO-HOO is that perched in our tree?

last night - shortly after the sun set i was in treys room putting away clothes when i heard kate begin to scream, "an owl - i see an owl." we had just started the movie robin hood so i responded with a very relaxed "cool kate, what is the owl's name?" at the top of her lungs kate replied "how should i know, this is the first owl i've ever seen in my tree." i dropped my laundry basket and had to check it out for myself.


SURE ENOUGH, i found kate and trey sharing a chair-noses pressed against the window gawking with amazement
at the huge horned owl that sat perched in our tree.
we enjoyed his splendor for a couple of moments
before he spread his wings and flew away into the falling darkness.

Tell Kate we can tell she has been eating her carrots! Good Eyes, Good Eyes. We love the picture with it!
