Re: Can someone ID this little fella? (snake)

Dave I can appreciate where your coming from - I've been know to shew off a few with a stick instead of taking their life. What got me was a few weeks ago saw a dead owl in the road - it must have been hit by a car / truck... Owls are so cool - I am a lot more fascinated with owls than snakes - especially after my close encounter last year. It was about this time last year when the Barbed Owls moved through - I hope to see some again this year. http://www.ncwoodworker.net/forums/f...wl-kind-10005/

Re: Can someone ID this little fella? (snake)

Hey, Jeff,

Barred Owls are resident here, so you don't have to wait. I haven't heard one in about a month, but they're around. They just hide easier when all the leaves are on the trees.

While we're on the topic of nature, do any of y'all know which bug makes that noise that sounds like someone tightening a bolt with a ratchet wrench? Is it a cicada or a katydid? Enquiring minds want to know.

Steve
