I once had a Barred Owl dive at me when I was running, 
trying to reach camp before dark. His shadow attracted my> atten- 
tion, and looking up I saw him balance on spread wings not f’ar 
&bove 3®y head, his claws drawn close up to bis body. When I look- 
ed up he lighted within a few feet of me. The parred Owl can 
see but poorly i n the day time and it was quite lipht when this 
bird approached me.
