A visitor came down the chimney this morning!!

I often get sparrows flying in my back door. Had to shoo one out a couple of days ago. I have also had an owl fly in a couple of times during the night. One spent the night in my bathroom on the shower curtain rod. Was flying around the kitchen at 3am and upsetting the dogs. Got him into the bathroom and went back to bed until a reasonable hour in the morning to let him back outside.

He was beautiful, but I was not greatly impressed with him flying around at 3 o'clock in the morning and the dogs crashing into everything chasing after him.

An owl is a regular visitor to my place especially twice a year when the Bogong Moths are migrating. He regularly crashes into the Living Room window trying to catch them. Thankfully he doesn't hurt himself, just scares the daylights out of me.

I have a possum too Cathy. Thankfully about the only damage he does is to my rose bush. He just loves eating roses.

The owl that visits regularly is the Boobook Owl, our smallest owl. But we also have the Powerful Owl living around here. He is our largest owl and also quite rare.
