The Spotted Owl

In the canopy the spotted owl waits Uneasy, but not knowing just why His life's habitat shrinking each day Stating his worry with a hooting cry Living his life in old growth forests Knowing nothing of men and their ways The North West his perfect environment Deserving to live there the rest of his days There are so many species lost to us now Unable to exist with the advancement of man The spotted owl may become next on the list On old growth logging we must now put a ban… NOTE….I was raised in a logging community. Obviously there is heated debate between environmentalists and the logging community. Personally, I don’t believe we can afford to lose even one more species if we can prevent it. The spotted owl is listed as endangered or threatened already.
