We have a couple of real ones within 2-300 feet of either side of our
property. they do not seem to discourage anything, and if the crows
find them during the day, they attract a whole lot of crows.

....just don't be a field mouse.

We have a family that has roosted in our yard for the 18 years we have lived
here. Ditto on a pair of red tailed hawks.

The parents have had a few owls (Don't remember the variety) that
have taken to roosting in a pine tree outside my dad's workshop.
My sister got curious and "dissected" a few of the owl pellets and
discovered that the were eating more crayfish than mice.

elfick willg: you can't use dell to beat people, it wouldn't stand up
to the strain... much like attacking a tank with a wiffle bat

We have a resident hawk. Makes the chickens very nervous ... Kenni

Well I'll be darned. I would have never thought that an owl would learn
to catch crayfish. Of course, here, crayfish are strictly aquatic. Could
it be that in your area there are crayfish that venture onto land at
night? I do remember once in Southern Ohio seeing holes in a muddy lake
shore that seemed to have been inhabited by crayfish.
