Today, I was driving down a dark country road with the windows down. Suddenly, a giant barn owl flew through my side-window and smacked into my head, causing me to drive into a ditch. FML

Owls have better eyesight than humans when it's dark. Maybe it was saving you from something out there :)

I bet you recently had a break up where your ex told you that you have a big head?
I think your head was so big the owl couldn't avoid it.

Seinfeld reference. Elaine broke up with a guy who told her she had a big head, and a bird flew into it and a witness said "it was like he saw your head, but he just couldn't avoid it".

Well, it said in the first book that Hedwig was a snowy barn owl, and OP never specified what colour.
Would I sound stupid if I asked who Eril is?

It did not say Hedwig was a 'snowy barn owl', the reason being a SNOWY owl is one species and a BARN owl is another - they are separate and do not interbreed.
Much more entertaining is the fact snowy owls only come in two colours, white (male) and grey (female). This of course means that the owls used to portray Hedwig, a female, in the films are all male.
On a different note, the wingspan of a barn owl is a good meter, so either you have freaking massive windows, it wasn't a barn owl, or at the very least it was not a 'giant barn owl', but rather an awfully small one...

32- Regardless of whether you call it a snowy owl or a barn owl they're still only found within the arctic circle.

I was going to say the same thing on a Harry potter note. I was going to say he was trying to give you, your letter to attend Hogwarts.
Ps owls and barn owls are located in many place. specially north America.

They use owls to give acceptance letters. Slytherin is full of twats. Naturally their delivery owl would be a twat too, right? That was my joke

Ah, I see.
Actually, if OP was a muggle born (seemingly likely-he/she is using muggle technology) a ministry representative would come and explain Hogwarts and magic in general.
If you want to get technical about it.

It must have been Pig! He was on his way to Hogwarts that's all! I'm sure Ron will send an apology letter soon. By owl.

Pigwidgeon. Ron's owl. Given to him by Sirius black at the end of Prisoner of Azkaban. Named by Ginny.

Actually.. It can't be Pig. It says that the barn owl was huge. Pig is a tiny little thing.

It was probably the Weasley's family owl Errol. It was old and very clumsy.

That is one reason why I dislike living in the country. Random critters fly through open windows or jump right out in front of you!
