Thanks for this course! We lived several years near Colorado's Rocky Mountain National Park and had many chances to see Great Horned Owls. In the summer of 2013 some chicks were trained just outside our yard. Sometimes we would wake to find one in the eaves above our front deck. I grew to love them! We moved closer to Denver in 2017 and I was treated to my only Snowy Owl sighting in an irruption. There were birders flocking from all over to see it hanging around Standley Lake just after Christmas.
