Since I didn't see the owl myself and the photo is slightly blurred, it seems even more ghostly ...<br /><br />Donna, you'll know it when you hear the call ...<br /><br />Pumpkydine, that's interesting about the noiseless feathers. It's true I've never heard one flying, though I've listened between calls at night. All of a sudden the calls will cease, and the night will return to silence. The bunny was sighted the next morning, eating Swiss chard seeds :)<br /><br />Karin, I only wish I had seen it, too. I did see one a couple of years ago about a mile up the road, sitting in a low tree branch. It was also sometime after 6 p.m. So they must occasionally come out before dark.Sheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16932826147522119761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1696676219167858431.post-39548992120896398032011-08-18T06:34:52.505-04:002011-08-18T06:34:52.505-04:00How incredible!

One of those often heard but seldom seen birds. Did you know their feathers are designed so that they make almost no noise in flight? Hope your "Bunny" faired ok with the visitor in the neighborhood!pumpkydinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12496871977941295456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1696676219167858431.post-42741327034458010172011-08-17T22:36:30.817-04:002011-08-17T22:36:30.817-04:00we have spied one of these wonderful birds a coupl...we have spied one of these wonderful birds a couple of times in our area and once in our garden....so incredible, silent...I have not heard their call thoughDonnahttp://gardenseyeview.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1696676219167858431.post-21506452296158112002011-08-17T22:23:39.885-04:002011-08-17T22:23:39.885-04:00How exciting finally to "lay your ghost,"...How exciting finally to "lay your ghost," so to speak. Those eyes really are eerie--so hooded and dark! I went to the Cornell Lab of Ornithology site and listened to the recording and must say that there are some imaginative people with food fixations out there to hear "who cooks for you all" in that. I'm with you--it's far too other-worldly!Stacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08297253093260251145noreply@blogger.com
