I noticed that you are trying to find an owl for the 2008 Great Backyard Bird Count. Although I live in Greenville, South Carolina, I know where you can find one.

My mom and dad, Ruby and H.W. Roach, live on Highway 206. A barn owl lives in their red barn.



If you walk into the barn a little after daylight, the owl will fly out the other end of the barn. Chief the Rat Terrier and I find him there all the time.

There you go. Problem solved.

Hal Roach

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! And thank Chief as well! We oughta known a barn owl would be on 206. Now that it's confirmed, somebody needs to actually see this guy and report him during the GBBC. I hope somebody has a report of this sighting to report to the GBBC. I may not be able to make it in the morning, but I certainly want to see the barn owl as soon as I can. Thanks, Hal Roach. Also, somebody in Chance needs to report the barred owl which has an affinity for the utility line near Emory's Chapel. -EW
