[mou-net] Northern Hawk Owls and Short-eared Owls in Aitkin County
This evening I took a drive up to Aitkin County Road 18. There were two NORTHERN HAWK OWLS right at the junction of C.R.18 and C.R.5, sitting on consecutive telephone poles, one eating a meadow vole. There were also two SHORT-EARED OWLS along C.R.18, one and six-tenths miles east of Highway 169, one sitting beautifully on a small tree and the other floating around the field on the south side of the road. Also seen along C.R.18: one BARRED OWL, two NORTHERN SHRIKES, two SHARP-TAILED GROUSE and a NORTHERN HARRIER. Other weekend birds: American Kestrels, Hooded Mergansers, Common Mergansers, Trumpeter Swans, Canada Geese, Red-winged Blackbirds, Snow Buntings.

[mou-net] Northern Hawk Owls in Lake County
Katie Brey and I did a quick loop up Cty Rd. 2 out of Two Harbors and down Stony River Forest Rd this morning between 7:45 am and 12:00 pm. On our way north up Cty Rd 2, we spotted a Northern Hawk Owl 1.9 miles south of Forest Route 824 (not so much a road as a glorified trail). The owl was perched way out in the middle of a bog and only remained visible for a few minutes before taking off into the woods. We were fortunate enough to spot two more Hawk Owls on the Stony River Forest Rd. The first owl was perched atop a tree about 8.2 miles north of the Whyte Rd. This bird showed no signs of leaving and we were able to quietly observe it for 10 minutes or so. The next owl was spotted by Katie 2.2 miles north of Whyte Rd., also perched right next to the road. Both of these owls were seen between 10:30am-11:00 am. Other highlights of our morning included: 16 Pine Grosbeaks 73 Common Redpolls 1 Pileated Woodpecker 1 Bald Eagle Cheers, Sarah Glesner Duluth, MN Join or Leave mou-net:http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives:http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html
