I was out chasing my runaway dog (again) this morning @ 10:30 when I saw a Great Horned Owl sitting in a dogwood tree just a block or so from my house in the heart of Kingsport! I suppose he (judging by the size) was sleeping because I walked quite close under and got no reaction. A few of his features were sticking out in disarray-I don't know how common that is. He looked like he'd had a rough night! Amazing what you can see when you're looking....
