Little beauty! I wonder how many owls even like to be out during the day.

RHH replied to xenophora:

These hunt early or late in the day and do not like the hottest hours, but are often out.

xenophora replied to RHH:

Interesting. Sometimes here in the city I see hawks. They go after pigeons. But I've never seen any owls here.

RHH replied to xenophora:

What you are seeing are probably Peregrine Falcons. I've not heard of owls living in the city, though they do often in habit barns and such structures.
