If you feel like you are banging your head against the wall, try using the door.

next time.....owl soup...only don't tell anyone what the main ingredient in your soup is as it is a $10,000 dollar fine to dispatch a bird of prey, NO MATTER what they did to deserve it. 
Now that he has learned about your trap door for the pigeons he won't forget and will be back.
I'm very very surprised he let you handle him. he must have been full o plenty on his meal of pigeon and sluggish. Like the Copper's hawk, I heard the Barred owls go into kill mode no matter whether they are full or not.

This Great Horned owl was in my coop last month. There were a few birds still out at dark so I didn't cover the pigeon gate. Big mistake !! He killed several. My wife made me net it and let it go. I wasn't smart enough to drive it 20 miles away and see how his homing instincts are.
