This may be of interest to people with Christmas visitors. I saw the now long-staying Snowy Owl at Bronte Harbour this morning and this afternoon. This morning the bird was on the west pier and I was able to get some decent photos before it flew onto the top of the condo at Bronte Road and Ontario Street. (11 Bronte Road, Oakville) It was still there a few minutes ago.
Directions: Exit the QEW at Bronte Road (Oakville) and go to the lake. The top of the condo can be viewed from south of Lakeshore Rd. Go out on the pier on the east side of Bronte creek. Check the west pier, the docks, the east (rocky) breakwater and the masts of sailboat in the boat storage yard. The Suncor pier west of here also can have an owl.
