I just got off the phone with my dad, who had talked to my cousin living in the Grand Rapids area. Seems my cousin was at a social gathering with a game warden friend, and knowing I was heading upthis weekend to see owls and other birds, the discussion went to owls. His friend shared one situation he dealt with recently in which a GGO crashed through a picture window and of course was killed.
It took just a little while to figure out what had happened. The homeowners had a small terrier type dog that likes to sit in the window sill. The poor owl must have thought he'd found lunch. I don't know the exact location, but am assuming that since Steve lives and works just outside Grand Rapids, his friend does as well. Gwyn Calvetti near LaCrosse Wisconsin
