Would you like to help name the new great horned owl at the George McGough Nature Park?

Submit name suggestions online through June 22. The list of names will be narrowed down to the top five. Those names will be posted on Largo's Recreation, Parks and Arts Facebook page, so the community can select the final name.

The new owl in nature. The great horned owl

Hi Joann. That definitely fits! There still time to enter name suggestions online or by visiting the park. If you would like to go to the park, when you enter a name they will give you a cup of turtle food to share with the park's aquatic turtles.

As usual government lied to us. They said if we switch over to reclaimed we will have water for…Read More lawns whenever we wanted!!!!! NOT!!! Plus they didin't tell us that we would probably have to replace all valves in sprinkler system shortly after because this water isn't as clean and destroys them. You then have to put in different ones to accommodate the grit etc in the water. Same with the heads those little screens get clogged a lot more and need service more. So much for SAViNG $$$$$$ NOT
