Call someone cause birds of prey are federally protected and fines run big for possession if yoor friends or neighbors get wind you have it. remember if two people know a secret and you want to keep it that way..one has to die.

Guy's, it's way too small to be a Great horned Owl. I just saw a couple of those last week. This thing is SMALL! My pet pigeon could whip it's ass! [:-]
I've caught Screech owls before and I really believe that this is one of them. They come in many different color variations. This thing is no more than 10" tall. By this time of year, the baby Great Horned owls would be darn near full size and a heck of a lot bigger than this one.

Good catch and was going to be my first sentence as well.
Greg, nice job and please let us know how it turns out.

That's actually a Great Horned Owl.

Greg I think your owl is actually a "Long Eared Owl" and if it is, it alsolooks like it's an Endangered species and illegal to keep any part of

Damn, I just got done studying both owls in images and I have to say, it's tougher than hell to tell them apart for me, except perhaps size. I apologize. Now I honestly don't know.
Please let us know. Thanks Greg.
