When I came into school today I had about 6 crows at my bird feeders but they were mobbing something. It turned out to be a Long-eared Owl that was sitting on the window sill of the school. There were also two Red-shouldered Hawks mobbing the owl as well. The owl stuck around for several hours allowing many students and staff members to see the birds. What a way to start the day!!! And also a great science sighting for my classes. Upton Lake Christian School, Clinton Corners, NY Jim Clinton
