Small owls really get hammered by free roaming cats, especially juvenile owls when they fledge the nest. About 60 million birds are killed each year in CO by feral and free roaming cats. Subject for another thread, but....

    Here's another one rescued from a cat last summer, an adult Northern Saw-whet Owl. Fortunately, the cat owner intervened before the owl was hurt so I released it on our farm.





    And, since this is a Funny pics thread, here's a nestling Saw-whet that I banded on our farm a while back.



    Wow you really do have a lot of fun things going on out there, don't you?

    I think we're rolling through GJ/Palisade Saturday afternoon on our way to Moab. I'll be sure to wave at you and the owls.

    What is my joy if all hands, even the unclean, can reach into it? What is my wisdom, if even the fools can dictate to me? What is my freedom, if all creatures, even the botched and impotent, are my masters? What is my life, if I am but to bow, to agree and to obey?

    Awesome classic Savage ad: (Just as applicable today, right?)

    My Feedback

    "When law and morality contradict each other, the citizen has the cruel alternative of either losing his moral sense or losing his respect for the law." -Frederic Bastiat

    "I am a conservative. Quite possibly I am on the losing side; often I think so. Yet, out of a curious perversity I had rather lose with Socrates, let us say, than win with Lenin."
    ― Russell Kirk, Author of The Conservative Mind
