I believe one day I will become a more avid bird watcher since we live near some great places to view them.

thank you for responding to my post about the owl sightings

i hope that you will have many opportunities to spot birds of prey during the day. i think people might see owls [in flight], and confuse them with hawks. there is a northern hawk owl.

further info with photos, if you are interested:

they are very fascinating birds, and how lovely you are in a spot to have such visits-

belle! i have to tell you that ez picked up that pellet and handled it and i was freaking out over the possible diseases he was getting on his bare hands.
