Hi Lynette,

I live in the south end of Burlington, and I did hear a Screech Owl for a
few nights in a row in the summer of 2020 (eBird Checklist - 27 Aug 2020 -
Ledgemere St - 1 species <https://ebird.org/checklist/S72889512>). So it
seems they are sometimes in town, but rarely. Great you have been hearing
one or more!
