A housesitter who found her friend's Oak Bay home trashed over the weekend was surprised to see the culprit clawed, feathered and roosting on the dining room chandelier — the second such incident in recent days.
Posted: Nov. 14, 2022 11:46AMTina Gaboury recalls the moments she walked into her friend's Musgrave Street home, thinking it had been robbed, only to find an owl staring back at her.
“[My boyfriend and I] were kind of looking around to see if anything was stolen. All of a sudden, we noticed an owl perched on the chandelier in the dining room. So we were like, there’s the culprit there,” said Gaboury.We opened up some windows and doors and he was just sitting there. He wasn’t in distress or anything, he was just sitting there.
The group thinks the creature entered the home via its chimney after spotting black soot smudged on the walls and ceiling, according to Gaboury.
