If you want to post the hatching Killdeer chicks-so adorable!, you can register on-nature.net, follow the wildlife and birding links until you reach the bird forum, register, then you can post your photo. If you want to post more than one photo at a time, upload your photos to someplace like photobucket, then copy/paste the links to the posts. Rachel from E KY >

Re: [IceHorses] Birder
You're right, Cheryl. Great-horned owls can and do eat skunks (cats, small dogs, porcupines (often to their detriment)). Barn owls usually prefer to stick to small rodents. Cherie

That's an adult West Taiga Great Horned Owl...here we only have the dark eastern versions. I used to see completely white versions when I taught in Hermosillo, MX back in 2001. Those things are strong; one even carried off our beloved Gray Chinese Goose. Rachel from E KY > >

The owls are the biggest reason why I bring all the cats in at night -- I actually had a barn owl try to fly through the family room window last month trying to get my little black cat that was lounging on my ankles watching TV with me (it wouldn't see me because a lighted lamp was in the way, but the cat provided a nice contrast on my pink throw). Owl and window were OK -- I saw the owl fly off, but the thump was impressive. -- Lynn Kinsky, Santa Ynez, CA http://www.silcom.com/~lkinsky/
