She's getting more well-known every day, and in the process she is sucking up a lot of Kate McKinnon Google Juice. Interesting, yes, maybe it had something to do with her.

Cats fight back. I'd way rather eat a bunny than a cat. I don't know what type of owl she feels that she has. I'm on the case though. We have so many bunnies. Cats fight back.

Somewhere between Blue-black and Black. If the owls are raising young, you may see fledging owlets at the nest during enough light to use binocs to see detail. They are so cute, bobbing and weaving and stretching their wings. Unfortunately, palm trees do not make safe places to raise owlets. Some fall to their deaths before they can fly. If you have a sun-sheltered spot, you can build your own nest box out of a sheet of ply and a 16' 4x4. I have some plans if you're interested.

Could keep one awake if close enough. But they don't hunt larger mammals like cats or hares. 'Hoo...hoohoo' are the calls of Great Horned Owls, twice the size of Barn Owls, and they do take cats and rabbits if available. She should keep her cats in at night anyway.

Really, cats are a lot of trouble to eat, I 'd be surprised if an owl chose to go for one when there are so many bunnies and field mice and such to nibble on.
