There is an old barn near home and each time I pass, I check to see if there might be an owl perched in the hayloft window. It seems like a perfect vantage point for hunting. Well I've only seen a pigeon there once, so had to take matters into my own hands. This is the scene I imagined, using a Great-horned Owl I saw last year.
