Greetings, Today we noticed something sticking out of the screech owl box we have put up. Anticipating it to be a squirrel, we thought nothing of it until a look through the binoculars confirmed it was a grey phase screech owl. Fancy that ! Our first screech owl in the box. We also were jolted awake at 3:40 this morning to the very loud call of a Great Horned Lark. Although there was plenty of moon light we failed to detect the bird but listened as another Great Horned joined in the conversation from deeper in the woods. What a joy to have two different kind of owl sin a 24 hour period. Happy birding Dorothy ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
