78. Strix nebulosa, (Barred Owl). Common 
about King-field, where it often resorts to barns 
during the day time, and has thus earned the 
soubriquet of “Bam Owl.” It was also heard 
about New Portland and at various parts of the 
southern part of Somerset county. Mr. Freeborn 
has a pair near Farmington, from which he has 
taken two sets annually for the past four years. 
The nest is in a cavity in a decayed oak stub, 
about fifteen feet from the ground.
