As I was skiing late this afternoon, descending the downhill from behind the Dartmouth day care center down to the Girl Brook trail, a Barred Owl flew right over my head, very low. It's amazing how silent their flight is even when one is VERY close!

It is still here, waiting on a branch close to the ground up i the woods where a red squirrel disappeared in a hole. We saw it make several (unsuccessful) attempts to catch red squirrels.
