Today Ian Cannell and I went out to specifically find Snowy Owls in the Strongville area (along Hwy 26 SE of Wasaga Beach). the Holland Marsh area at Bradford and at the west end of Ravenshoe Road in Queensville and luck was with us.
We came up with 19 Snowy Owls that included 17 female/juvenile types and 2 adult males plus Cooper’s and Rough-legged Hawks A. Kestrel, Wild Turkeys, red-bellied, Hairy and Downy Woodpeckers, Common Raven, 3 Northern Shrikes, Red-breasted Nuthatches, Golden-crowned Kinglets and Snow Buntings. All in all a good day to be out there after the icy time I spent in the dark here at home. Sent from my Halleberry.
