This spotting shows its camouflage so well! My hope is to see their spiral dance this spring.
Haha yeah we shall see! :) Yes I'll get right on top of that. I know that you know it'll be difficult stuff, those little Owls are TOUGH to find...but they're gonna get the best out of us naturalists :D Fingers crossed...
I won't be up there for another 3 weeks, he has time to reappear ;) But keep trying to track down owl locations in the mean time!
Joshua, yeah they are! Especially Woodcocks...they blend in amazingly!
Haha I know it Ashley, we could of went after it if it had stayed! Too bad. But yes that would be awesome for you! GOOD LUCK finding one! I'm sure it'll be a thrill for ya!
Aw dang it! Well when I get my job out east (hopefully) I will be in range for them so hopefully can start finding them! They are super high on my list to see
Cool stuff! Those snipes are hard to find.
Lol!! I would be too if I were you. :) He disappeared a few days ago. What a bird!
This makes me such a hater! Is he still there?
