It could be a Northern Saw-Whet Owl. They have an even, repetitive call, wh=
ich some compared to the sharpening of a metal saw, hence how they got thei=
r name according to some. I heard the first one here on my property that ve=
ry day, the 22nd. The males usually start calling early Spring, but March i=
s usually when I first notice them. A little milder this year, maybe the ma=
le is getting a head start calling on his territory. =C2=A0Check out the "m=
ale advertising call" on this link and let me know if this sounded like wha=

While out for a run this evening (Feb 22 2016), ~1730 PM, I heard a repeti=
tive peeping sound near a farm on Highway 362, just south of where the road=
changes to Gate's Mountain Road, Middleton, Annapolis County.=C2=A0
I stopped for a minute, the sound and habitat looked good for spring peeper=
s. I include the question mark, simply because the sound seemed too regular=
, maybe piece of debris rubbing on another in the wind that just happened t=
o sound remarkably like a peeper. Later in the evening, I swung by the same=
area after picking up a friend from work ~ 1820. The wind was still blowin=
g, but couldn't hear the sound anymore.=C2=A0
Might be worthwhile to keep your ears open while out walking, especially if=
this weeks forecast holds true. Has anyone encountered calling-peepers in =
2016?
