Thursday, 15 SEP 2005 at 7 pm I saw a possible raptor fly up and perch in a
tree near the Vulcan sand dredging operation on the Nolichucky River in Greene
Co. When I got my binoculars on it I saw it was a Great Horned Owl. It sat
facing into the dying sunlight in plain view across the field from where I
parked. A local landowner stopped to look at it with me. While we watched a
male
American Kestrel harrassed the owl, calling and diving at it. The owl turned
its head to watch the kestrel but never moved on its perch.
