"Owl" get over it....but he won't!
It is a scarey place to be when you are traveling down the road at 70 mph on a dark autumn night and out of nowhere a HUGE bird is in the middle of your lane!! That is what happened to me tonight on my way back from Grayling where Donnie was speaking at the church. A loud thump, a few feathers flew and that was it. Fortunately I did not swerve and the bird did not fly up into the windshield. Close to home when I turned a corner we saw a wing flit above the hood! To my horror, the large bird was lodged in the grill of my truck. Donn removed the grill and Mr. owl was dislodged. It has a wingspan of a couple of feet and it's claws were enormous with long talons. I really feel horrible having killed this beautiful bird! Guess it is just one of those things that could not be helped! Another night, another story to tell and I am thanking Father Donnie and I were not injured! So far my truck has slaughtered a deer and an owl..whoa..enough!

Glad everyone was safe! Lucky it was the truck and not the car!
