I'd always heard that about babies, too, Liz, but then I read an article that said they still weren't as dangerous, because there was less venom and it wasn't as potent.

I found that report on the web, Sherry - that's scary. One theory is that we're just coming in contact with another type of venom, that has more neurotoxic effects that the plain vanilla venom.

Well, we got our owl box up. Just barely managed over 12 feet up the tree - the recommended height - and need to trim a couple of branches off so predators can't use them. We're going to try one in another location, too, and see if we have any takers. Check out this condo!
