Danvers: Students from Essex Aggie got a first hand look at some of the birds of prey that Kitty Carroll will be bringing to the Topsfield Fair this year while visiting Clark Farm Monday. Here, Carroll hoots at an owl while trying to get him to calm down. Students from the Natural Resource and Park Managment wildlife course learned about falconry as well how these birds prey and live. They even were able to pet an owl. Photo by Deborah Parker/Salem News Monday, September 22, 2008
