Owls is a weird take. The obvious thing would be to assume they made it all up. If the weight of their testimony and the evidence is too strong to go with that, you're already past a naturalistic explanation.

Owls do not do somersaults. Owls are not bulletproof. I absolutely guarantee you a bunch of Kentucky hillbillies cannot and would not fail to hit a pair of fearless owls given a whole night to shoot at them. Whether the hillbillies were stone cold sober as claimed or blind drunk, those owls would be full of holes. There would be copious evidence of their demise. To claim they were owls is to claim those owls had supernatural powers.

Hum,hum hum, possibly a trite explanation (carnies con? wacky tobaccy ? mass hysteria?), possibly a bit of really strange, damnedifIknow.

I have over the years, on a number of occasions experienced things absolutely defying rational explanation (No not alien abduction, not shape changers, just occurrences unexplainable by physics, laws of chance, etc.).

I'm not buying nor selling. I am convinced thought that: There are far far more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in anybody's philosophy!
