For those working on their county lists - or who haven't been able to get north this winter - there is a Great Gray Owl in Sherburne NWR currently. Ironically, it's hanging around the Welcome Center, where Highway 9 and the St. Francis River intersect (it was on the green sign next to the road, but has since moved). The center mentioned that it's been there for a few days.
This is the first GGOW I've seen or heard about in Sherburne NWR this winter. Good birding to all! Al Schirmacher Princeton, MN Mille Lacs & Sherburne Counties
