Barn Owls

just wondering what the biggest possible quarry would be that you could fly a Barn Owl at?

 

i.e. would small rabbits be an option?

barn owls can and do take baby rabbits in the wild but getting a barn owl entered to them would proberly be very hard and then you have the risk of them carrying it.

Bit of a coincidence as i saw a wild Barn owl with a baby rabbit this weekend. Was about 8.30am so guess had hungry chicks nearby

My Barn Owl took on a cock pheasant in january on a 200yds slip off the fist and bound to it mid air!

depending on the bird and the size of the quarry the owl could carry the catch away maybe to a nearby tree to eat etc.

 

lol id pay to see a barn owl take a pheasant mid air.
