Yesterday afternoon I went to Glacier Ridge to try and see the barred
owl Paul McSweeny wrote about. Not the best time of day for a roosting
owl - and I did not see it. However, the narrow band of woods on the
other side of the trail, next to a large field, had at least 5 or 6
bluebirds darting around. I've seen bluebirds in winter before in
southern Ohio, but this is the first time I've seen them this time of
year in the Columbus area.
