            Barred Owls are most active at night but also call and hunt during the day. They are sit-and-wait predators, sitting quietly on a perch before swooping silently down on unsuspecting prey. Occasionally they also hunt on the wing. This Barred Owl was perched in a tree on a warm Spring day on May 5,2017.
