A Great Horned Owl

By: Stan Jordan

This picture is of a Great Horned Owl that was injured/sick and ended up in Jim Pendergrast’s yard. They didn’t know how bad off the owl was so they called Nature’s Nursery in Whitehouse, Ohio and them folks came right out to get the bird. They figured the wings were not broke, but maybe some damage inside. They took the bird to the nursery and will keep him until he is well.

Some of the owls native to our area are the Great Horned Owl, the Long Eared Owl, the Short Eared Owl, the Barred Owl (or Hoot Owl), the Snowy Owl and the Eastern Screetch Owl.

We are sort of making a survey of owls in the area and we are getting different answers.

See ya!
