Spring Approaches

Site 9.

Activity began in January: Owner observation in italics:

Jan 14th

We have had another larger red owl who has moved in. We had a Barred owl that was hunting and out in the morning here. I also hear the Barred owl out at night in our yard. This may be the reason the owls have been coming and going. This larger red owl has ,however moved in.

A brief usurping of the squirrel resistance in Mid Feb.

Thank you, the squirrel is missing for 2 days. I just went up and pulled out all of the leaves and the box is ready for the owls again- silly squirrels- first one in 5 years

Activity has continued:

Mar 4th.

Hi
We have had a female red owl and a male red owl off and on for the last 5
weeks. This female seems to be very comfortable here. I have never seen the
male and female together. I have however seen mice that were left in the
box.

Enjoy- the picture with the snow is from this morning ! she is happy
