Owls In New Hampshire Struggling To Find Food
GLOBAL WARMING! Errr … maybe not …
Owls are struggling to find food in New Hampshire this winter, animal rescuers said.
Debra Gode, of Winchester, said the owls’ main food — the red-backed vole, a rodent — are in short supply. She said the constant snow cover also has made it harder to find food.
Great. As if I wasn’t guilty enough about it being my fault that the seas are going to rise 20 feet and we’re all going to incinerate because my minivan isn’t a hybrid and my lightbulbs are still incandescent, now I have to feel guilty because there’s just too much snow. Next time, let’s take the long way home, stuff some more carbon in the atmosphere and make next winter warmer. Save the OWLS!

Hah! Over the years, I’ve lost quite a few cats to nocturnal predators. I’m sure that owls can take a cat if they are up to the challenge, but you never know ,tables turn in nature. I had a family of barred owls set up camp in my back yard a few years ago and not a night went by when the hair on the back of my neck didn’t stand up straight when they started in on their nocturnal habits of noise making; very spooky stuff!
