We made a quick trip along Forest Highway 11 on our way from the North Shore returning to the Twin Cities this afternoon(Wednesday). At 12:45 p.m., we saw a great gray in the trees along the roadside of Lake County Road 4, .9 mi. east of the intersection of County road 4 and County Road 15(Forest 11). It was actively hunting. At 1:30, we saw a Northern Hawk Owl being harassed by several pine grosbeaks at Petrel Creek and Forest 11. The second hawk owl we saw was 2.6 miles east of Reservoir Road (#618) .
