Hi Everyone Great Gray Owls are still being found at various locations in eastern Ontario. Unfortunately none have been staying around for too long. Yesterday, 2 were observed, one along Hwy. 60 between Madawaska and Barry's Bay at 5:15pm, sitting on a hydro wire, while another was observed along a ski trail east of Ottawa. Today there was one present along Thomas Dolan Parkway east of Dunrobin. There were 3 Snowy Owls in the Kinburn area, one along Kinburn Side Road and two along Galetta Side road near Hwy.417. Yesterday, my wife observed one, in south Kanata, along Fernbank Rd, between Eagleson and Terry Fox Drive, one was sighted along Rideau Road near Ramsayville Road, and another behind the Ottawa Airport. The finch numbers continue to increase, today I observed 200+ Pine Grosbeaks in the Kinburn-Carp-Dunrobin area, and over 400+ Pine Siskin. Also there was a flock of 40+ Bohemian Waxwing along Rifle Road off Carling Ave. Good birding, Bruce
