enough to have them in your barns, you didn't need to worry about mouse or rat populations getting out of control. But I agree, the sounds they make are straight out of a horror movie 😬
They sure are a beautiful bird, such a captivating face and eyes. Thanks for posting the video, brought back some great memories.
