ANGRY_CROW_TAUNTING A GREAT HORNED_OWL_013

This picture was taken in my small backyard. I was inside and heard what sounded like a crow . I went outside and saw this large black crow cawing and flying around in circles. He was dive bombing this grey owl in broad daylight and trying to knock him out of the tree. It continued for 30 minutes until the owl finally had enough and flew away.

    HI , I live in Seymour In. USA. I have a small yard in a residential neighbor. I cant imagine where the crow or horned owl came from. It was sight I have never seen anything like it. After they had flown away I typed in " Why do crows hate owls". I found out that owls are predators and eat crows. No wonder the crow was angry , its hard to say what the owl had done to his family.

      Crows are good at chasing predators away, even bigger ones, if there are many of them. Posted 11 years ago
