Hello Tweeties!
Thanks to Ian for directing me to the Slater Museum on-line bird wing
guide. The feathers match the pheasant and turkey quite well. Since
we do have a gang of wild turkey in the area, my guess would be Wild
Turkey.
As to the owl part of my original post, how common are Great Horned
Owls in the area just outside of Snohomish? Do the Great Horned Owls
prey on household pets? An inside only cat managed to pop a screen
and got out about a week ago and has not been seen since. I know
coyotes prey on house cats, but what about GH owls?
Thanks.
