Birders-

The big owl seen yesterday morning was directly across from #203 Dogford 
Road, a big yellow house. As this is a residential road with little 
traffic, PLEASE respect residents - and the bird itself - if you go 
searching. This bird likely moves around quite a bit during the day, and 
is unlikely to be in exactly the same spot.

Also, as this re-sighting has not yet been confirmed I request that the 
information not be distributed more widely than UVB (e.g., NHBIRDS and 
MASSBIRD). Hopefully if the owl is still around it will move to more 
open and/or publicly-owned land.

Thanks,
Doug
