UNC owl update





  UNC's resident barred owls continue to sleep away the daytime hrs. in easy 
view in their favorite holly trees just south and east of Pettigrew Hall 
(sometimes together, sometimes in separate trees), but tonight after 
watching them fly around a bit (after dusk) finally spied the female 
checking out a hole in large oak(?) facing Smith Hall entrance (near a 
lampost and walking path). It's a tree I haven't seen them use before (and 
not sure she was satisfied with this particular hole) but hopefully means 
they're at last preparing to breed.
