Echo was transferred to Mountsberg from the Guelph Lake Nature Centre where she was raised for the first year of her life. Eastern Screech-Owls are cavity nesters and will often utilize an old woodpecker hole in a dead tree as a nest site. Unfortunately for Echo, her nest tree was cut down and she was the only chick to survive. When she was found, she was taken to Guelph Lake and raised by the staff there. As a result, she is human imprinted.

The view down Echo Park Road in Dinosaur National Monument. We drove down here and camped the night before. It then proceeded to rain for the whole night. There's a sign at the top of the road marked "Impassable when wet". Getting out was to prove rather a drama...

Echo shows off part of his nictitating membrane, which is a third eyelid (so to speak) that helps protect his eyes from dust and debris.

Glen Echo Park is a park, arts and cultural center in Glen Echo Maryland. The park started out in 1891 as the cultural center of a suburban community planned by Edwin and Edward Baltzley, a National Chautauqua with a six-thousand-seat amphitheater that taught subjects ranging from Greek, and Hebrew to physical training regimens and university extension courses. The Chautauqua proved popular with hundreds visiting, and Clara Barton, was persuaded by the Baltzleys to move her home and the American Red Cross headquarters at Glen Echo, as well as preside over Women's Executive Committee for the Chautauqua itself. Unfortunately, the entire venture soon fell apart, due to poor investments by the Baltzleys elsewhere as well as rumors of malaria hitting the Glen Echo site.
A few years later, Glen Echo park reopened as an amusement park, popular with locals of the Washington DC area. However it began to decline in the 1950s with the advent of larger theme parks. Decline accelerated when the trolley line stopped running over from Washington DC. The amusement park finally closed in 1968. For most of its life, Glen Echo Park, like most facilities in the DC area restricted the park to whites. On June 30, 1960, several African-American students, primarily from Howard University, staged a sit-in to protest the segregation. Five students were arrested for trespassing. The case ended up in the Supreme Court, where in Griffin v. Maryland (1964), the Court ruled that state had unconstitutionally used its police power (in the form of a deputy officer employed by the amusement park) to help a private business enforce its racial discrimination policy. After a year of protest, Glen Echo Park management gave in and desegregated the park in 1965.
Since 1971 the park has been run by the National Park Service and managed by the Glen Echo Park Partnership for Arts and Culture, who hold a variety of social events and Resident arts programs.
