Subject: [Ontbirds] Northern Hawk Owl (Low, Quebec)
Hi Ontbirders:
A Northern Hawk Owl has been in Low, Quebec since December 18th, 2010
(first reported on a Quebec birding website). The owl was actively
hunting this morning when I arrived moving from tree to tree. On at least
four occasion it hovered right in front of me as it determined if there
was prey below before flying to a perch.
The owl can be found along Neely road just after the bridge. A favoured
perch is on the left side of the road in a bare tree. If it's not perched
there, check the field across the road where a gray shed is situated. It
was actively hunting there behind the shed area near the river this
morning.
Three years ago in 2007, a Hawk Owl was found along McDonald which is just
1.5km from this years location on Neely road (chemin Neely). Infact,
McDonald and Neely roads intersect.

Directions:
Take hwy 5, direction to Maniwaki. Hwy 5 becomes hwy 105 somewhere along
the way. The key is to follow directions to Maniwaki. Low is
approximately 64km from downtown Ottawa.
Take Hwy 5/105 direction Maniwaki until you reach McDonald. There is a
large sign that says, "Brennan Hill - Restuarant Bar & Grill" at the
corner. Turn left there onto McDonald. It looks like a sort of dirt road
and is winding so drive carefully. Continue along McDonald until Neely.
Turn RIGHT onto Neely and continue until you cross the bridge which isn't
far away. Just after the bridge look for the owl either on the right or
left side.
