We headed up to Lill's cottage on the Bruce, pretty close to Tobermory, last weekend. Suffice to say, it was, and I expect, it is still quite wintry up there...

I managed to scope out the Nocturnal Owl Survey route that I'll be conducting next month, just south of the cottage, but overall didn't really see too much up there, minus a large congregation of Common Ravens (~135 at the municipal dump).
On our drive back (Monday March 9th), we came across a Snowy Owl near Tara. Closer to Waterloo we had 3 Snowies within 500m. from one another - pretty cool!
Just outside of Heidelberg we spied a Short-eared Owl sitting on the fencepost. Lill got a few decent shots with her point and shoot.

Anywho, not too much else happening this week, but the next few will be different, that's fo sho.
Hello Ken,
ReplyDeleteI was just wondering why you're keeping your eBird submissions from public view.
This is making me want to see them more! lol
Is there a chance that you'll open them up for nosy parkers like me to see them? :)
Happy Birding,
Karen Hass
