For the second year an adult, unknown sex Short-eared owl (Asio flammeus) has
shown up at the exact same spot as last year on the Sinclair Campbell sign
near Long Point. The bird was spotted gliding over the plowed corn field then
crossed the road to sit on the sign. It later chased a Northern harrier
(Circus cyaneus). It was seen around 4:44 pm today.
Directions:
>From Highway #3 drive approximately 20 km south on Highway #59 through Langton
>and Walsingham to Long Point. At the Front Street & Hwy #59 intersection turn
>right, heading west on Lakeshore Road and continue driving approximately 600 m
>toward the house on the north side of the road with fire # 2995. The Sinclair
>Campbell sign is across the road on the south side.
