WASHINGTON — An owl in Montgomery County, Maryland, has been picking on runners along the Capital Crescent Trail recently.
Now, the owl is taking his attacks online.
Someone has created a Twitter account for the raptor, with a profile that reads, “I eat mice and regurgitate pellets. In between, I protect my turf from joggers.”
Because people are running through my home. As humans, surely you can understand this response. https://t.co/oa2kctJdXu

Don’t make me angry, you wouldn’t like me when I’m angry. https://t.co/wCXGBjmOhQ

A Montgomery Parks spokeswoman says three people have been attacked.
The D.C. area has also been home to other Twitter critters, including @CapitolHillFox, @NIH_Bear and the late @SnowyOwlDC.
