geo888@cs.com says its not whether the owl is eastern or western but you must take the square root of the wingspan !

Also, it depends whether or not the tower is struck by lightening as that
will change the composition of the owl!  Gene K2QWD

You'll have to check the archives. I believe geo888@cs.com posted that the
windload is less if the owl is facing true north on a 190 foot freestanding
Rohn 25 tower.

How do you calculate the wind load of a plastic owl?
