On Dec. 26, at 4:00 PM, a Great Gray Owl just west of the intersection of Cedar Tree Road and Bulmer's Road, hunting from trees at the edge of a pasture 400 metres from Cedar Tree Road (north of the road). Found by Stephen O'Donnell and Judy Arai and observed by Dan Bone and Susan Blayney. We hope to get this brownish, first year bird for the Kawartha CBC tomorrow but it is nice to have a count week sighting in the bag.
Fenelon Falls is about 25 kms north of Lindsay. To get to Cedar Tree Road take County Road 121 north out of Fenelon Falls past county Road 8. Turn right on to Cedar Tree about 3 kms past CR 8 and proceed 3 or 4 kms to Bulmer's Road. _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
