OWL, Screech — April 21,1933. 



Big stone Gap ,Va.— Camblos. 

 * One day I was looking for a Flickers 

 nest, in an old Beech. I put my hand in 

 the hole of the supposed Flickers ne3t , 

 when I felt a sharo pain on my thumb;of 

 course, I jerked it out. Then I wrapped 

 hand with my handkerchief , and proceeded 

 to extract my assailant. I drew oat, (to 

 my surorideka little rufous colored 

 Screech Owl. I turned him loose and took 

 three white ,nest- stained , globular egga 

 from the hole. The hole was ctf>out f our v 

 inches in diameter , fourteen inches in 

 lopth,and fifteen feet from the ground. 



The eggs were incubated about 3/4.
