Four mornings has seen the lake calm and smooth like a mirror with not a ripple. Earlier today, the sound an owl could be heard calling, calling in the darkness.
Did you hear it? Was it the call of the Great Horned Owl... listen

We've been hearing a Great Horned Owl near-by, here at the south end of the pond. We've also heard an owl answering from the distance.
ReplyDeleteDick, thank you for confirmation on the Great Horned Owl! I have only heard it once this year but will keep a closer watch. Wouldn't a photo be great?!
ReplyDeleteOwl Moon by Jane Yolan was always a favorite children's book with my family. Never to old for a great story - I'll have to give it another read either by myself or with one of the grandchildren!
Good to hear from you!
On another note: the Pileated woodpeckers have been extremely vocal the past month!
