It was very close and very loud and interrupted whatever I was doing in the dream. Deciding to go look for it, I waiting until I again heard the call. This is when I realized that I was now awake (barely) and the owl was must have been right outside my window. Hopefully, this is one of the pair that nested here last winter and I'll soon be listening to a duet. What a great way to greet the first morning of December! ======================================================================= To leave the MDOsprey list, send e-mail to listserv@home.ease.lsoft.com with the following message in line 1: signoff mdosprey ======================================================================= =========================================================================
