Very aggressive flock of owls

[Traceee]

Are there any owl experts here as we have a problem which has been happening over the last two weeks. My daughter came running screaming into our bedroom saying that she heard a loud noise and seen a face at the window which was strange as she's on the third floor but my husband went to check it out anyway but found nothing. This happened every night so I spent the night there and at around 3am I heard several loud thuds and called my husband who opened the curtain just in time to see an owl flying at full speed into the window and slamming into it before flying away and then another different coloured owl would do the same, my husband counted 12 different owls doing this and this has been happening consistently at 3am every morning, we've tried candles, leaving the light on, a horror mask on the windowsill and my husband even bought a large stuffed hawk from the taxidermists but they still attack the window, they all seem to be living in the large tree that's alongside our house if that's any relevance?
Does anyone know why owls do this? Are they in heat, angry for some reason? Are we in any danger if they decide to attack us if we come home late one day?

seems to be a problem for young ladies ...violent owls<

And it seems the earlier 'young lady' was also banned.
I do wish the AB 'powers that be' would let these threads continue,before the OPs are banned.....they are highly entertaining ;-)

i think their quite entertainer too. Let them run a bit longer, and let us have a longer belly laugh while wondering just how honest the poster is.
Is there is no swearing, or being nasty, cant see what the problem is .

Maybe they see a reflection, or maybe there's mice in the walls of your house, or possibly there's a strange noise coming from your house at 3 am. It really strikes me as odd if it's always only at 3 am... find an animal/nature forum on google.
