Great horned owl?

Subject: [NatureNS] Murder Mystery on the Roof
I awoke this morning at sunrise to the sounds of very angry crows. I could
not spot the predator that was upsetting them but I did see the evidence of
what had happened to cause the outcry. On the roof of the garage in the
snow were feathers from what could only be a crow that had just been eaten
by a hawk. The flight feathers were large and black and there is no other
bird in the neighborhood that would match those feathers except a crow. Can
someone tell me what kind of hawk (High St. in Bedford) would capture a
crow? I would appreciate any feedback/thoughts on this mystery. Thanks!
