For Stark County birders, I wanted to follow up on Jon Cefus's post a few days ago about trying to 
locate owls in Stark County.  Tonight around 6:00 I was driving down Rt. 43 in Lake Township and 
had an owl fly across the road in front of me.  I was just north of where Mt. Pleasant intersects with 
43, and the owl flew into the large field adjacent to the Rt. 43 Antique Mall.  I didn't have binoculars 
with me, but if I had to guess an ID, I thought it looked like a Short-eared.  However, I'm far from 
certain about that.  I just thought I'd mention it in case anyone is in the area and wants to take a 
look.  I'm hoping to be able to check the field around dusk the next couple of days to see if I can 
find it again.
