Well, I was all worried about the owls getting my Yorkies, but then the former student said what I should be worried about were the Red-tailed hawks. They are out hunting in the daytime; the owls hunt at night... I thought, well, maybe the hawks are no problem, since I had never seen any, and the next day I saw 2 fly over...

I just try not to let mine out in the yard alone... This is not always possible, but I do try... When they go out, I wish I had some creative way to contain them with something over the top, like a covered area... My dogs are not as big as some small rabbits.

P.S. Billye, these owl boxes attract very small Screech owls, not the big owls...
