to my knowledge there have been no owls seen in the NewLiskeard area which is quite interesting that the movement has by passed us for the moment especially when we had so many northern saw whets this year. condolenses for our lack of great greys would be appreciated but not necessary

But, in no case has a bird stayed for more than a short time in one place. Many Rough-leggedHhawks are present in farm fields both east and west. Also, at North Bay's "landfill site", Iceland Gulls are present (both first year and adult), and Glaucous should be arriving imminently. The landfill site is about 10 miles north of town. It is "friendily" accessible, except on Sunday, when it is locked.
