["Stephen Stedman" <SStedman@xxxxxxxxxx>]

With Ginger Ensor I made a trip to Ninemile Crossroad in the northern
Sequatchie Valley of Bledsoe Co. late yesterday afternoon, arriving at
the Short-eared Owl site about 1700 CST.  Ed Manous and friend were
already watching the owls when we arrived.  Three owls were perched in a
large tree behind the small pond; these gave nice views through the
'scope. Later we watched the three owls begin flying around the the
area; they were joined by a fourth bird that had apparently remained
roosting in the weedy field.  All in all, it was another fine showing by
this rarish owl.  I hope others will continue to seek these owls so that
we can know about when they leave for the north.
