At around 9 AM today, a Great-Horned Owl was seen roosting in the evergreens, along the river trail at Crosby Farm Park. It was in the stand of trees just east of where the dirt path intersects the paved trail. This is the same day-roost area usually frequented by a pair of barred owls, which I last saw there in December. Knowing that GHOWs will kill BAOWs, I'm hoping the barred have retreated safely, perhaps across the mouth of the MN River, where there is a known nest cavity.
