I been keeping tabs on Northern Hawks Owls, Snowy Owls and Great Grey =
Owls.
So far the here are the following numbers
Northern Hawk Owls: 13 seen so far by various birders. The chunk of the =
sightings are in the Sax Zim Bog area NW of Duluth. There might be more =
but there were no directions given to all the 7 seen yesterday and =
Monday. So I would assume some of the birds seen yesterday might be some =
of the birds seen by a group from WI over the weekend.
Great Grey Owls: 14 seen so far this Fall season. Many of the owls are =
from Sax Zim bog east to Lake Co. there hasn't been any owls seen north =
of Co. Rd 16. Its interesting to see Great Grays are working there way =
along the north shore.
Snowy Owls: 2 so far. One owl in Polk Co. and another in Cook Co. I been =
looking around and seen that so far Snowy Owls were seen in Nebraska and =
Kansas.=20
Boreal Owls: I see that Bill lane on his web site is near 15 or so =
netted. So when the snow falls and begins to pile up unfortunately there =
are going to be a lot of starving Boreal Owls around. Many of these =
sightings will be near feeders.
These totals are just for October. We haven't approached November yet =
and the rest of the winter months.=20
