Hi, I thought I'd post some more details about our trip up the lake on Sunday. Besides the SNOWY OWL in the evening, other highlights that Brad Walker and I observed were a close female LONG-TAILED DUCK at Stewart Park, 8 YELLOW-RUMPED WARBLERS and a YELLOW-BELLIED SAPSUCKER at the bottom of Lake Rd. in Aurora, a COMMON YELLOWTHROAT at the end of Van Dyne Spoor Rd, and a COMMON GRACKLE and 110 RED-WINGED BLACKBIRDS at Tschache Pool. It's too bad that the Montezuma CBC was on a Monday rather than Sunday. For a photo and video and more notes about our SNOWY OWL encounter, please see the eBird checklist at the link below
