My wife and I found two fledging Barred Owls this evening at Blues Creek Park in Ostrander, Ohio. They were on opposite sides of a gravel path about 30 feet high. One was in a Locust tree just off the east side of the path and the other was about 40 feet off the west edge of the path. We watched them for about 30 minutes but couldn't find their original nest. It was the highpoint of an already good evening in that we saw several Yellow Warblers, juvenile Blue Birds and a Baltimore Oriole along with scads of Tree Swallows. Les Chambers 825 N.
