Last evening I went to the western part of the state to a Barn Owl nesting site. It was the third trip I made there in the last couple of weeks, but this time I saw the birds.

219. Barn Owl

The owl was a state lifer (number 250).

Today I went to the boreal forests of the high mountains of West Virginia to look for crossbills. I found just one (usually they're in sizeable flocks), but it counts, so I'm now up to 220.

220. Red Crossbill

Missed one from last week:

Thursday, July 28:

68) Great Crested Flycatcher

Kitchener, Ontario

Hard to find anything new these days, partly because it's been too blinkin' hot to go out during the day usually. (And, of course, most of the locally-common species are accounted for by now.)

Fortunately, these birds will call (and loudly - RRREEEP!) into the early evening.
