3/18/12 to 3/19/12 Long Lake (northern Hamilton County) I have to go through more steps to send email when I am out of town, so I hope this makes it to the lists. I am on a two-week college tour across the US with my younger son, but my husband reported that a Northern Saw-whet Owl vocalized ALL night outside our Long Lake house last night. (He asked me what owl species sings the same note over and over and over ... and sounds like a truck backing up!) He said it was so annoying (to him) that he almost closed the window! I wish I had been home to hear that wonderful sound!
Migration from the car has been remarkable: accipters, buteos, eagles, vultures, and snow geese... fill the skies as I drive. I've enjoyed the sounds of Killdeer during the day and night.
