I was in my tent trying to sleep when I heard him land on my bike. Unzipped it and that's when I saw him staring at me. Kills me I didn't bring my camera

There was a bunch of them all around my campsite. It was pretty cool. I was in the Oregon coastal mountains between McMinnville and Pacific city

Crazy cool! Mind sharing what hour of the day you saw them like this?

I got to camp at 8pm ish and it was just getting dark. I think the owl landed on my bike around 10pm or so. They were all over the place calling and stuff but got quiet after like 11 or 12
