Whitish? Hmmm. I've seen a great horned owl on a power line before in our
neighborhood. It was after a kitten. Fortunately I happened upon the scene and
deterred the event. Plenty of other little critters -- rats, etc... for them
to eat. It took off silently, fascinating and beautiful. This one was not
whitish, however.
I love hearing them hoot to one another!
