I recently saw a Barred Owl a few houses away from me in my neighborhood of
50x100 to 70x125 lot yards. Years ago I saw a family of Barred Owls. The
neighborhood blog (which includes other adjacent neighborhoods) has been abuzz
about owls recently. One person posted a photo. I assume that they are mainly
eating rats, but if they do any daytime hunting there are plenty of eastern
squirrels on every block. Western Screech Owls have always been in the
neighborhood in my experience. I hope they are not on the Barred Owl menu.
