Owl and Hudson Valley Man Get In Tug-O-War Over Rope

As you know, I have three owls that have pretty much taken over our backyard.

Every night around 5:30 they come out for breakfast and start hunting mice, chipmunks, squirrels, bugs and whatever they can find in our yard. It's kind of fun to watch and the owls never really bother us. That is, until this week.

My son and I were dragging a rope through the yard when one of the owls must have thought it was a snake. What happened next was just insane:

We love having the owls in our yard, but they seem to be getting just a little too comfortable swooping down so close to us. What do you think? Would you let these huge birds remain on your property or would you scare them away?
