Title: owls in my backyard
Post by: RKD on February 28, 2012, 09:17:05 PM

Not one, not two, not three but 4 Screech Owls. One sitting in a large maple in our backyard, three others calling from different locations and distances. It was totally amazing, almost surreal. I've dreamed of finding only one owl and now I hear four. And a week ago I heard a Great Horned Owl, but he/she was in the far distance. Must be the year for owls, for me at least

Amazing to see and especially hear such creatures.  Lucky you!
