Preserve, we also enjoy many species of birds--flying friends who make
their home on both campuses.
The Eastern Screech-Owl is one such bird who has been sighted on both
campuses. The owls are well camouflaged and hide in nooks and crannies of
trees through the day--many living in owl houses that have been
constructed by our residents. The photo below was taken by Jane
Bourquin a few years ago. If you train your ear to their call, you may catch them in view at dusk.
Check out this link to hear the mysterious trill, which may sound spooky,
but is sure to catch your attention.
