This is only my second sighting in the 6 years we’ve lived here of an owl. Though, I regularly see bald eagles and Cooper’s hawks. Actually had a Cooper’s hawk eating in our backyard very close to the tree in that picture. Cleaning up the feathers and carcass was worth the show.

We’re very blessed to live where we do and be so close to state and national parks as well as the ocean. The kiddos love seeing all the wildlife.
