I went there a couple of times at dusk while they were there and watched
the adults fly out and return with food for the babies. They were LOUD,
and peeked out several times in view, obliging those of us wanting them to
make an appearance. What an experience for a backyard birder! And, as an
encore, we watched the International Space Station fly over around 10pm on
one of those nights we were there to see the owls.
Coldstream is a nice park area, for those who haven't been there yet,
don't overlook it.

Kate Heyden circulated this around to some folks this morning. Interesting
story and nice picture by the Herald-Leader's photographer.

The Lexington Barn Owls have fledged and the construction crew helped us
install a nest box for them last week. Andy Meade of the Lexington Herald
Leader has been covering this story throughout the process and a closing
piece was put out in this morning?s paper.
Coldstream's barn owls will have home on return - Fayette County -

We hope to see the owls using the box next year!
