I had the first chance to finally visit Sax-Zim last week, and had a great time but did miss out on seeing an owl. Oh well. I do want to try again though, and with daylight savings time giving me an extra hour at night, and warmer weather predicted, am thinking of leaving for a day-trip late morning next week on a sunny day. My options are to go back to Sax-Zim, or to try Aitkin County. I'm leaning towards the latter, as I've never been there. Pastor Al gave some suggestions which I printed out for Aitkin. For the more experienced birders, I'm just wondering where you think might be the best chance, Sax-Zim or Aitkin, for seeing an owl, or if it's about the same and you just have to hope for the best? Also, when going to Sax-Zim from the Twin Cities, is it best to go to Duluth and then take 53?
