RE: Owl vs mini ???
Capt, in a word yes, this has been known to happen. I have been followed by, and chased wrens with my aero ace, lots of fun, and had some bigger birds chase my pico fokker, until they discovered that I could turn tighter than they could and ran them off. Buzzards and fast slow sticks will occasionally get into a bit of air combat. It's part of the fun. Some birds will wonder just what is that flying in my territory. You have the best story in a while though.
Have Fun
