We were very interested to read Mike Boyd's report about a dead Long-eared Owl recently found at Amherst Island. He wondered if a Great Horned was its killer.
Yesterday (March 1) at approximately 1:30PM, while searching (no luck)for a Snowy Owl that was reportedly seen on one of the buildings at the former Lakeshore Psychiatric Hospital (Kipling at Lakeshore Road in Etobicoke), we also found a dead (mature) Long-eared Owl lying on the lower branches of a spruce tree located close to the shore of Lake Ontario and immediately south of the Col. Sam Smith parking lot. We now wonder if this bird was killed by the Snowy.
