Other night I was in the back yard and heard a constant snapping sound coming from high in the tree next door.
When I let the dog out it stopped.
At 4:30 am Friday morning I heard the sound again when I let the dog out. The dog actually trotted over towards the the tree and had a look and listen.
Thursday Morning at 4:30 am there were three Eastern Hare's/bunnies/rabbits in out back yard two in the yard which the dog promptly chased under the deck and one on the deck five feet away from me unnoticed until pooch approached the door and it bolted.
Wabbits were feeding on spilled seed and a discarded decorative corn cob set. :?:
I found this sound bite (thanx for posting the link BTW) of a Sawhet Beak snapping. :?:
