Over 200 folks enjoyed Wingmasters on Wed. night. The Friends of the Hamilton-Wenham Public Library made this program possible. Last weekend in Vermont, I had a wonderful experience with owls. A couple of night wanderers ran back to the cottage thinking there were coyotes in the woods, but when we listened carefully, we realized it was three Barred Owls who were calling back and forth.Their call sounds like:"Who Who Who Cooks for Youuuuuu???"

To find out more about owls, go to Kids Infobits and type in "owl" for a search term.
