For the 2nd winter in a row, the same pair of snowy owls has returned to the area of Saint Michael High School. They have been present for the last two weeks. Most days, in the late afternoon, they can be seen sitting on the top of the hydro poles along McLeod Road between Kalar Road and Saint Michael High School. They also favour the peaks of the highest rooftops along Parkside Road. Two photos from today:

Immediately upon passing through the Kalar Road intersection, begin checking hydro poles and rooftops. Parkside road runs north from McLeod just before you come to St. Michael High School. The owls have been seen on rooftops as far north as Forestview Blvd. GPS coordinates on the most common late afternoon location are: 43.069745, -79.138473. _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
