Wednesday May 27th
This Barn Owl was photographed as it perched on the highway railing in the early morning hours this past Sunday. I had driven to the Everglades Ag Area south Belle Glade, Florida with the idea of finding any swallows.
Cave Swallows are active in their colony site on East Canal Street, south of Belle Glade. My efforts to get a useful photograph were thwarted by the speed of their flight. They are presumable nesting under the closed bridge spanning the canal near the intersection with Brown's Farm Road. Several Barn Swallows were also spotted along Brown's Farm Road.
The Barn Owl was seen across the road from the Cave Swallow Colony.
