On site there is a North American Great Horned Owl which has 'lived' here for quite some time, along with a semi tame wood pigeon. The latter is feed by a local resident - who apparently feeds it chicken every day, no wonder it doesn't stray far - it has also lived here for over 10 years & it is getting rather fat now!
These owls hunt at night by waiting on a high perch and swooping down on their prey, which can vary greatly based on opportunity, as last night when Carl was returning to the caravan, the owl decided Carl's silly hat resembled at 'tall rabbit' and promptly swooped down to try & kill it. Carl had to change his underpants when he got back inside the van, lol !
