Wow Float On......that is a bit early for hummers! I live in central Indiana I usually see them the first week of May.
Tybee......thanks, I'll look into that. That would be cool to hear that others have seen something, so I would be more on the lookout. What part of the country do you live in? It must be north or Canada. I would DIE if I saw a snowy owl!!
I haven't even seen any barn owls. My friend in southern Illinois put up a barn owl house last spring and got a nesting pair that had babies!
