owl fans




after fooling around for 2 months!, UNCÕs campus B. Owls appear to have gone to nest (around last Thur.), in the same treehole they've used for at least 5 years. The male is often perched sentry-like during parts of day in a tree near the nest tree; the emergence of babies(hopefully) at least 2 months away.
A reminder(as I mention every year) that a wonderful webcam site for nesting Barred Owls in Massachusetts exists at: www.owlcam.com
the proprieter there has filmed a pair of Barreds nesting in his home-made nest box for the last 6 yrs.(not much happening yet this yr.) -- it also includes, should anyone be interested, instructions on how to build such a box.
