At Colonel Sam Smith Park there was a Horned Grebe around 4:30pm, and I stayed to dusk to verify the type of owl seen last week: It was absolutely a Long-eared Owl. thanks to all who helped me!
The Varied Thrush put on a good show this morning. The owner seems to put out the corn around 9-9:30. The Snowy Owl at 400 and hwy 9 was present again today. It likes to sit on TV antennae. It was seen on both Strawberry Line and Edward Avenue, just northeast of the 400/9 junction. pictures below!
