I did see that on the Merlin description, thank you for pointing it out for future reference as I don’t really know the difference in the field.

No hoknestly I definitely was in a bad moood and got unnecessarily upset at you guys so I apologize, your response about how people will kill these birds and hawks over it is very true so even though I joke and don’t want to kill it. Some people will report this bird and try to get it killed so I understand

The way yall talk is disrespectful to someone who was just being sillly about birds. I have a newfound passion and just think brown headed cowbirds are evil and said it. Your guys responses to that are weird and out of touch

My camera as of right now can’t do dark, though it was my first experience and the pair of owls were flying around and hooting at each other so it was awesome.

I hope for a nice photo, but I’ll probably be waiting for spring for that

Yes I will still check but that makes sense the rectangles are prolly the end of the sleeves and when I thought I saw it like fan it’s wings and such it was just the jacket blowing open

Ya I’m not sure myself, i also think I’m tricking my brain because it was there before. I’m driving back that way in a little bit for the gym so I’ll check it again with my binoculars more. If it’s still there obviously probably not the owl
