Hello Tweeters,

Does anyone know of an active Barred Owl nest? I have/had two here on
Whidbey, but one is not active this season, and the other was cleaned out
by the local Great Horned Pair.

I would like to train a Barred Owl or two to include in a chapter in my
coming book; The Great Horned Owl and Her Falconry." Initially the book was
to only cover the GHO, but I feel compelled to act as an advocate for a
species that has a lot of potential as a falconry (recreational) and
educational bird. The Barred Owl needs a "friend" at this point, as well
as some promotion.

Please reply directly to me at Markbordenmd at gmail.com or call/text
360-632-7484.
