General questions

[<cllslp at msn dot com>]

Just a general question for the group.
Are most of you retired or just have great vacation plans at work?

It seems alot of you good folks sure have alot of time to your disposal to 
be looking for birds.
Just curious and very, very envious!

I was also wondering if any of you are Christopher Guest fans (mockumentary 
master of Best in Show, Mighty Wind, etc.). If so, don't you think a 
mockumentary about birders would be absolutely hilarious?

Sorry for being a bit off topic.

Birders Rule!

Subject: Idaho Northern Hawk Owl

There is in fact a Hawk Owl in Sun Valley Idaho.  Eric Huish and I just saw 
it today.  It took us 5
hours to get there from Orem, but it is well worth the drive.  It was at the 
intersection of
Elkhorn Village & Highline in Ketchum.  When we got there
it couldn't have possibly been any more obvious.  There are only a few trees 
there and it was
in the top of a small pine.  A lady was shoveling snow about 10 yards from 
the owl.  We
actually were too close to fit the whole owl in our spotting scopes!
There are also Common Redpolls in the neighborhood and we heard that there 
is a Hoary
as well, but we didn't see it.
