Northern Hawk Owl in St. Louis County
2010-04-19

'Rare Regular' in Minnesota

Dug up an olde but maybe it will bring some good hawk owl vibes to MN. In the spring of 2010 a pair of hawk owls attempted to nest in the Sax-Zim bog. This bird is the hen taking a break from sitting on the eggs. If you look closely you can see her brood patch. They were nesting in the top of a large tree that the top had broken off but unfortunately their attempt at nesting was unsuccessful.
