A very cool visitor (12 of 30)

As Sari got in my truck to go back to school after lunch, she looked up and said, "Is that a shopping bag in the tree in the backyard?"

After a moment she yelled..... "Its not a bag..... ITS AN OWL!!!!"

So we quietly went inside and got the camera... sure enough - a Great Horned Owl was perched in our tree. We stood out there looking at him until Sari was almost late for work. Fortunately he was still there when we got home, so I got the binoculars and we all (kids included this time) went out and spent a bunch of time staring at him. He did not seem to mind - though it was fun watching him watching us as we walked around.

Anyway - here are a couple of pics.......
