Thanks =D what you said about the first lines being more real than what follows them is spot on; same about the waking bit. Although I remembered the dream almost in its entirety, the owl was just a fragment (although the most important fragment) of a decidedly strange experience.
Just got your email - I'll reply asap but am also stuck in academia (damn essays) so it may take a little while...glad you liked the story too!
