Barn Owls and chickens? Problem?

It is. That's what we have here. Since I put up corded knotted netting today, I'll see if it can get into the pen tonight. Camera is set.

This is the best shot I have. It has a huge light colored wingspan.

That is not a Barn Owl.

We have an owl that's been taking our chickens. I caught it once in the act. I didn't get a good visual because it was near dark, but the calls sound like that of a barn owl.
