DT-45 has declared his 2024 presidential candidacy.

I'm not happy.

Barred owls are a known hazard -- there's an area in our City Forest where they post warnings every year. They vant to be alone.

I recall one incident in 2015 on Parliament Hill here in Ottawa-Gatineau. Red-winged blackbird rather than an owl...and noting that one of the attacked people interviewed for the video in the link is Alex Binkley, member of the Parliamentary Press Gallery, published SF author, and a friendly acquaintance from local writing workshops. Partly balding, greyish hair and mustache?
