Nightfall at Jakes Landing - Sunday, February 28th, 2016

Almost spring-like weather blessed us for tonight’s walk. We were thrilled to see two Short-eared Owls as well as a number of Northern Harriers. Our evening ended with a Great Horned Owl perched against the pink tinged sky and Woodcocks displaying in the upland portion. Leaders: Chris Marks, Bert Hixon, BJ Pinnock, Mark Watkins, & Carrie Bell.
