Where are the owls in Lakeville? Are 750mm or 400mm lenses long enough to "get close"?

It was in the trees when I arrived but flew shortly after when a car went by. It return around 3:00 and even though the light was not good I was able to get some pics. Yesterday both great horned owls were out in Lakeville. With a little patience I was able to get close enough to the male for full frame shots. Earlier in the day yesterday I photographed gold finch, house finch, purple finch, pine siskin, common redpoll and other birds at the feeders down at Whitewater State Park and a rough leg hawk in flight at Black Dog Lake.
