Columbia Pike Resident Presents Owls to Zoo
After Their Appetites Prove Too Destructive
Hootine Birds Raise
Family in Oak Tree
And Devour Goldfish

Homeless owls can find vacant
apartment today in the hollow oak
in front of Warren r. Clardy's house
at 1901 Columbia Pike, Arlington,
Va.
Mr.. Clardy, however, is not ad-
vertising the vacancy because he
had to feed the last tenants and
move them into a Federal institu-
ton at his own expense when they
got too noisy.
The two barred owls who moved
into Mr.. Clardy's oak tree on the
eoge of busy Columbia Pike were
very quiet at first. although they
we're rather rough on the gold
fish. When they raised family,
the situation got complicated.
The growing family was only 100
feet from Mr.. Clardy's front porch.
The parent owls kept hooting,
swapping their beaks and swooping
on Mr.. Clardy's gold fish pond after
dusk.
Then something fatal happened to
the male owl in the vicinity of a
neighbor's house where some white
Easter rabbits had been turning up
missing. After that the female
developed an appetite for gold fish
equal to her own capacity and that
of two husky youngsters.
Mr.. Clardy, an attorney with the
Internal Revenue Bureau, tossed a
rock at the owl with enough ac-
curacy to stun her. He captured
the big bird, which had a wing
spread of about feet, and delivered
her to the National Geological Park
before he learned she had two
youngsters in the oak
When the small owls began to
crack their beaks and utter around
in search of food, Mr.. Clardy dis
covered them for the first time. He
climbed up ladder about Is feet
into the oak and brought them
down. Not knowing exactly what
to do with the young captives, he
put them in his garage and began
to feed them calf liver.
This went on for two weeks and,
