Hi Everyone
The Great Gray Owls are still around in good numbers at both March
Valley Road and near the intersection of Dunrobin Road and Kilmaurs Side
Road. This afternoon I took my kids out and we saw 33 GGO's and in the
Eagleson Road/Fallowfield Road area, 5 Snowy Owls. At least one Gray
Partridge was present along Maple Grove Road just west of Terry Fox Road. It
was feeding around the base of some spruce trees near the Jehovah Witness
church.
There has been one flock (40+) of Bohemian Waxwing feeding in the
village of Carp for the last couple of days. No one location. Look for
berry/crabapple trees.
good birding
