Yesterday at 3:00 PM, Barb and I, and our daughter Susan, visiting from
Canada, went up to see if we could duplicate Jeff's success with the owls.
We arrived at the overlook just East of the Pisgah Inn at
5:00 PM, and encountered heavy fog and a light mist in the air. We heard the
owl calling as soon as the car door was opened, and it continued calling for
some time. We played a few 'toots' on the tape but it had no effect on the
bird. We continued to listen and look until heavier rain began to fall at
5:51 PM, at which time we decided to head for the Cracker Barrel. I
recommend the grilled chicken tenderloins!!
CHEERS !!! Bob and Barb Maxwell, and Susan Booth
