This was written up in the Wikipedia entry about the Eurasian eagle-owl. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurasian_eagle-owl

These owls are huge - much larger than the snowy owl or the great horned owl.

I just caught a fleeting glimpse—maybe the interviewer was from Dutch TV?

I’ve got a robin nesting for the 3rd year in a row in a flower basket on my porch. Same basket...the 3rd one on the left...sheltered from rain and wind. I think it’s the same robin mama as the last two years. She lets me gently water the basket and doesn’t even leave the nest! I can’t even believe it. When I pass by her, I always say “Hi Mama”...and she just stays where she is. Today I put a saucer of dried mealworms out for her and her mate. GONE in just a few minutes. So fun.

They're addicted to the television now. Pretty soon they'll be calling out for pizza and wings. Late night Owl parties....this could get ugly.
