Hi all, Our first full day (6.30am til 6.15pm) in Sax Zim produced some really great birding but alas.. no Great Gray Owls. We met plenty of other birders but not a soul amongst them had seen a Great Gray today - we will see what tomorrow brings...
Hightlights today (Friday) included 2 Hawk Owls, one at the south end of Admiral Road, the other near the south end of McDavitt Rd. Boreal Chickadee: Admiral Road feeding station 2 Hoary Redpolls: Admiral Road feeding station Northern Shrike: 2: one south end of McDavitt by railroad X-ing, and one near south end of Admiral Rd. 10+ Ruffed Grouse: various locations Pine Grosbeaks: several - various locations White-winged Crossbills: several - various locations We heard of others seeing American Three-toed and Black-backed Woodpeckers on McDavitt at the usual location, but in two visits we saw neither species : Must try harder! Back on the search for Great Grays in the morning - any help appreciated !
