Wait a minute though...
True, your post makes alot of sense.  But, I had the strong impression that
BOB took an owl as his host, at least at that point in time.  
Therefore, I had always been suspicious of when an owl was around people.
I mean, I remember seeing and hearing an owl when Major Briggs disappeared
in the forest.  Could Major Briggs be BOB's host?
Probably not since the white light is obviously *supposed* to be a reference
for good.  
I also remember an owl around Leo in one episode.  Leo is acting strangely
and by BOB entering Leo, that could explain Leo having the strength to
come out of his vegetable-like state.
I wouldn't bet anything on any of these two theories...it just gives you
people something to toss around.
