Strange things found in the forest

Screech owl, little bitty thing but the sure sound spooky. Ed

Yep, according to Walt Kelly, one of "Nature's Screechers".

I saw a screech owl at the local nature center, and couldn't believe how small and pretty it was. Told the handler "that pretty little thing makes all that noise?!?".

When I was little there was one in our back yard and I was afraid of it. So mom and dad took me out in the yard and shined a flashlight on it while it screeched. I was still afraid but at least i knew it would not eat me. Ed

When I was a kid I could imitate a screech owl perfectly.... then I got whiskers and had to switch seats in the choir, too.

Did you do the imitation while singing in the choir? Or were you trying to? :laughing: Ed

No, in choir I solo'd the Ave Maria. In the woods, I imitated the screech owl. Now I do a pretty good Bowser from Sha Na Na! :laughing:

I worked on a job in Hersey Pa that the general contractor was Bowser Construction. Not a day went by that I did not hear someone do the Sha Na Na thing! :laughing: Ed

It sounded like it was at least 7 feet tall.
