Yes. The Verreux's Eagle Owl and maybe the Great Gray have a six foot wingspan or more. You should look it up on nature websites, or in owl books.

It's a European Eagle Owl. There are several breeding in Uk at present. Some have escaped from would-be hunters but others are believed to have arrived naturally.

Eagle Owl (Europe) wingspan up to 170 cm
In North America:
Great Gray up to 148 cm
Snowy up to 150 cm
Great Horned up to 112 cm
170 cm = 5.6 feet. So almost.
