The Great Horned Owl is back in the nesting tree at Greenlawn Cemetery in 
Columbus.  It was sitting on the "nest" in the same tree as in previous 
years located on the ridge in Area M. Only its head and a bit of his neck 
were visible. It is best seen from the road just down from the John Brown 
Monument and in front of the Nash grave site. It may be superfluous to 
mention on the list serve but please do not approach the tree and just 
observe from the road.  The owls are skittish this time of year and are 
harassed enough by the blue jays in the area. They have abandoned the nest 
in previous years due to too much human activity nearby. Also saw a 
Coopers Hawk on the north side of the cemetery and a Kestrel at the 
entrance
