In late February of this year, NRCM member Hal Winters of South China, Maine, captured these stunning photos of a Barred Owl in his backyard. He reports that the owl stayed for about a half-hour, very intent on listening for any rodent activity under the snow. Unfortunately, Hal reports that it had no luck.
Thank you, Hal, for sharing these beautiful photos of such a magnificent creature!
Have you been observing any wildlife in your backyard while you have been home during the COVID-19 pandemic? Do you have daytime visitors that you didn’t know about until you began working at home? We would love to see your photos. Please share them with us, and they might be featured here as an upcoming My Maine This Week.
