I know why the caged bird screams

[MajGenl.Meade]

AN OWL killed a canary after swooping into a 10th-floor apartment in Idaho, the canary’s owner said on Monday. Sue Sausser said she came face-to-beak with the smallish brown-grey predator.

It entered through an open door and sprung open the pet’s cage, killing one canary and injuring another before rapidly flapping away. The second canary was not singing, she said, “but it's chirping and it is eating and drinking so I think it is almost over the trauma”.

Toni Ruth of the Idaho Department of Fish and Game said a 10th-storey apartment would sit high above trees where an owl normally might roost. —
