[Maine-birds] Very Sad

Last weekend as I was driving up to my Southwest Harbor Artisans meeting, I spotted something to my left on 95. Stopped -  ran over, Barred Owl dead.  Perfectly intact, it's beak was broken.  I picked it up and examined it and was astonished at how light it was.  This bird I do not believe had been dead that long.  

Today, as I travelled on rt 135 in Belgrade, I came upon another kill in the road.  I stopped.  Again it was a Barred Owl.  It had more injuries, but very sad.  

What is happening with these Barred Owls?  

Do they think all the blue Bud Light cans on the side of the road are prey????  

So very sad.
