Greetings birders I thought I would let people know that this may be a
good boreal autumn and winter. Last night at the hilliardton marsh owl
banders banded an adult boreal owl. The Hilliardton marsh is located 20
minutes north of Newliskeard and is very close to the Quebec border. Foe
more specific directions feel free to contact me. 20 boreals have been
banded in homer Alaska and 3 have been reported in Tadoussac Quebec.
Last year we specifically targeted capturing and banding boreal owls but
caught zero so we are happy to report this significant encounter to
birders in the province this year. For more information please feel free
to contact me or visit our website www.themarsh.ca
<http://www.themarsh.ca/>to find more about our research and directions
to the marsh.
Happy birding
