Enjoyed watching a Short Eared Owl hunting voles on my farm at dusk today. Earlier in the day a male Northern Harrier and a female American Kestrel sparred briefly while doing the same. Common Redpolls arrived in numbers today...they have been present at my feeders since November in small flocks...this afternoon over 60 were present at one point. Also American Tree Sparrow (9) and Slate Colored Junco (4) and American Goldfinch (30) My farm is five miles northeast of Gananoque.
