Khrystibear told me today that she thought she heard an OWL the other morning- about 6:30 A M. She said it was a soft, melodious, little "Hoot, hoot." You may not see this as* just incredible*, but we do. I've never, ever heard an owl. The whole idea is simply wonderful!!! I have been much more aware of birds since I befriended Betsy, Sunny, and Diane on the blogging network. They publish such beautiful pictures of many kinds of birds. I look for birds now. And although we are still very limited with the possibilities of seeing them here, we do have more woodsy areas than before, and we aren't very far at all from the Canyons. If I even hear a little Owl hoot, I will feel blessed indeed.
