[mou-net] In search of owls
As a newer birder, I'm very happy about the snowy owl outbreak and plan on trying to find one next Monday in Aitkin again, but I've unfortunately never gotten a good photo of more common owls such as a great horned owl. I haven't seen too much on this list as I imagine they are widespread, but if anyone has seen one or a long eared owl I'd appreciate any tips or an e-mail as to a location. I'm not sure if they are too common to post on or just not around and that's why I haven't seen anything on the list, but I'd be thrilled to find one. Thanks so much!

Re: [mou-net] In search of owls
Many thanks to the kind e-mails in response to this post. As you can tell I'm a new birder, and I think in my original I meant barred owls, not the less common long-eared, though those would be great to find as well to photograph. Barred owls are more common but I imagine not posted on as often, so it's just nice to know where they might be found and hopefully I can find some over the next few months. And maybe I'll get real lucky and find a Great Gray in Sax-Zim or Aitkin later this month. Thanks to all. Fr.
