Three Snowy Owls have been hanging out recently, about 15 miles east of North Bay. One is upon Development Road between Rutherglen Road and Mt. Pleasant Road. That is just about 4 miles south and east of the little community of Rutherglen, which is upon highway 17, about 13 miles due east of highway 11, the northerly connecting road from Toronto. The second one is further south-east, on Development Road, close to Brule Road. The third one is further south, along Adams Road, close to Pratt Road. The first two birds are beautiful, white adults. North Bay is 3 1/2 hours of no traffic light driving, north of Toronto. A couple of Northern Shrikes have shown themselves nearby, also, one near Powassan (south of North Bay), and the other on Latimer Road (between the first two owls). -- Dick Tafel
