I too had 2 Screech Owls call back and forth from adjacent yards last
night around 8PM. Most surprising though was one calling for a long
time at noon, mid July.

Working an earlier than usual shift at work got me home with just enough
daylight left to run over to Heckscher State Park (Suffolk Co
Working an earlier than usual shift at work got me home with just enough
daylight left to run over to Heckscher State Park (Suffolk Co.)
to try for migrating Nighthawks. But if any were on the move this evening,
none passed through the swath of sky I watched, only a few bats.
But I did not get shut
Had atleast one juvenile screech-owl calling outside my friends home tonight on
Spaulding Drive in Yorktown Heights. Hadn't heard that call from a screech yet
but have with great horneds.
