I dunno — to get that image the owl would have to flying forward while oriented vertically.

It might be possible, but I am skeptical...

“assumed it had flown off without serious injury”

Or maybe a neighborhood cat dined well that day.

She's gonna feel dumb when she finds out the two guys down the street put one over on her.

Bet she's known for being gullible.

I do all kinds of stuff like this to my daughter...she falls for it all the time.

Could not find any sign of the owl? I would bury it, hide it, etc. and say it flew away! If the UK gov finds it dead, they would probably go to jail for the rest of their lives!

Interesting, but seems way too good to be real.

Isn't that a Windex ad on TV?

No, wait...

It's the birds that are yukking it up, and it's the stupid white male that walks into the window.

At our old house in Phoenix we had a huge picture window onto the back yard. Although we never saw evidence of an owl, on that window we would commonly get “dove prints”. Almost always the dove would fly away, surprised but apparently uninjured.

To those who think this is too detailed: I once ran into a large black bird at 65 mph when driving cross country. It left a very detailed imprint like that. (It however did not survive.)

I think Fluffy the cat was sitting in the window and the owl went in for dinner only to find at the last second about the window, put on the brakes but smashed in anyway. However, I have seen many birds hit windows and I have never seen one put on the brakes first.....hmmmmmmm. Then again, the owl would naturally be putting on the brakes to grab the cat so maybe the window was not a factor at all.

This will be psychologically damaging to the owl though, he will always remember how painful and humiliating it was and might be very hesitant in his later hunting.

One thing is for sure, this event was certainly not a hoot for the owl, though likely was for the cat.

It’s a white owl.... We used to smoke ‘em.

Seriously though, that would be really creepy coming at you.

"... we can only assume that it had flown away probably suffering from a headache."

Ya think?
