Hello all
Just got back from the Big Levels Wildlife Management area in Stuarts Draft
. As I was driving slowly & listening out for any Night Jars a bird flew in
front of me & landed about 20 feet from the vehicle . It was still light
enough to get an ID on the bird . A nice Barred Owl . It then flew away & I
left the area so the Owl could continue to hunt . I also had 4 Whip - poor -
will's & one distance Chuck - will's - widow . After that I headed to a
wetland area in Stuarts Draft that last year produced a Sora . All I could
hear was frogs upon frogs .
