Sunday afternoon my husband saw an owl sitting precariously in our lilac bush. By the time I could get to the window it was gone. He may have tried to catch a red squirrel that had been nearby on the ground.
I've been watching the trees at the edge of the woods since. I'm sure it is hungry.
Had 2 White Breasted Nuthatches in my large maple this PM.
Many B C Chickadees
