Hey everyone, 
I have a spot for Long-eared Owl nailed down in Berrien County, MI, just across 
the lake from us.  It's usually pretty reliable this time of year and I just 
heard that there are LEOWs present there right now.   I also have a second 
location nailed down just south of Chicago in case we dip in MI. 
I was wondering if anyone would like to go chase these birds?   I thought some 
of you might wish to go due to the apparent lack of this species in Wisconsin. 
Let me know. I'd really love to go on Thurs if possible since it would also add 
to my '09 year list.  Also, if we time it right, we should be able to stop and 
look for the continuing Ancient Murrelet at the Port of Indiana and possibly 
Purple Sandpiper at a few spots. 
Let me know ASAP if you want to go.  


Happy Birding! --Chris W, Richland County

"The beauty and genius of a work of art may be reconceived, though its first 
material expression be destroyed; a vanished harmony may yet again inspire the 
composer; but when the last individual of a race of living things breathes no 
more, another heaven and another earth must pass before such a one can be 
again."

(From William Beebe's "The Bird: Its Form and Function," 1906)
