When I saw Jim's subject heading I couldn't believe it. I wondered if we
happened to do the same route. The GGOWs I saw today were in the Sax-Zim area.
I have birded the same area the last 3 days, including today. I had only 7
and 5 GGOWs the last two days. I don't know what happened today, but I had 27. A
large concentration was along Hwy 47 and on Swan Lake Rd, south of 47. Other
productive areas have been Melrude and Comstock Lake Rds along with Munger
Shaw Rd and the side roads off of Munger Shaw. Of note was a GGOW I photographed
on Melrude Rd yesterday which had approx 5 white greater wing coverts on both
wings, it was not there today.
Some of, or at least one of, the NHOWs were previously reprted. The one
near the town hall on Melrude Rd continues. One on the church steeple on Arkola
Rd, just west of 53. One where Cranberry and Admiral intersect and one on Hwy
47.
If there is someone who is compiling all the owl reports, I have exact
locations. I am traveling and don't always have internet access, but will get
back to you as soon as possible.
