I had a nice surprise while filling the bird feeders after I got home tonight.  
For only the second time in the six years I've lived in my current house, I 
heard an Eastern Screech Owl in a nearby yard.  I wasn't entirely certain the 
first time it trilled, since I was bent over pouring seed into one of the 
feeders and the neighbor's dog started barking, but then I heard it (the owl, 
not the dog) trill again, louder and closer.  I ran in and got my iPod, but 
couldn't get any further response from the owl (or the dog, fortunately.)
