A short eared owl is patroling Lowerside Road at the intersection with Creek
Road. The bird sat at the side of the road for several minutes then flew around
giving great views in flight before settling in the first snow covered field on
the left hand side of the road heading away from Creek Road.
>From Harrow, head toward A'burg along HW 20 past Malden Center to Creek Road
>on the left. Head down Creek Road, first road on the right is Lowerside Road.
>The bird is just above the Pig Farm on the right hand side.
He was still there when I left, good luck!

Nineteen participants, 16 in the field and 3 at feeders conducted the first
ever Forêt Larose-Casselman Christmas Bird Count on Tuesday, January 4.
Weather conditions for observing birds were excellent, with mild
temperatures and no precipitation.
Compared to neighbouring Vankleek Hill's 25-year average of 37 species, la
Forêt Larose's count of 40 species and 2,918 individuals is respectable.
