It's hitting pretty much right at the bird's feet, and the bird is sitting upright from there.

That was just a tree. People went crazy trying to figure out where the animal was hiding.

Never would have noticed except it was I was looking up and it was a moonlit night and the owl blocked out the rather bright sky as it flew over, I never heard a thing, they really are quiet.
