From the bridge we observed two Great Egrets. Sammy and I observed one of the same here on the morning of 5 JUL 03. Carol I drove around Hyder Hill Road by the river and parked on the shoulder. I did a Screech Owl rendition and was answered nearly immediately by Screech Owls on both sides of the river!
