We have owls flying around again. We were herding the sheep, and one perched on the tip of a douglas fir, looking down on us.
Judging by the size of it, its tufted head, and the hoots which ring over the farm tonight, there's at least one Great Horned Owl visiting us. We hope that it will eat more vermin than ducklings. Since the ducklings are sheltering mostly beneath the porch, we expect they will be safe.

We're a small family farm raising sheep, geese, ducks and fruit trees in western Washington. We also keep and are kept by an inordinate number of cats of the house and barn varieties. This is our farm journal as reference for us and amusement for you.
