Hi all,
I just wanted to clarify that while these birds are highly diurnal on their
breeding grounds (the far north, where the days are long), many if not all
recent studies of wintering birds in the lower 48 show these birds are most
active and hunting at night (some over open water, hunting gull
Hey Gang,
Please remember that these birds are highly diurnal,so they hunt mostly during
the day from dawn to dusk. Searching for them at night might cause them to
flush from resting and make them more susceptible to harassment from the local
Great Horned owls which are pretty cranky right now
He was flying over the lake to the NE when I saw it shortly after sunrise.
Eric DeFonso and I looked on the north side of the lake and I spent a little
bit of time looking below the dam but didn’t see it again.

Birders,
Tammy and I were at Stanley at 9 am. Talk to a photog who saw the owl fly
high to the NE and over the dam. He had an identifiable flight shot of it
so I know it wasn't a gull. It was the owl. We didn't see it when we were
there but didn't go below the dam.

I was unable to relocate the bird at 2am when I noticed the eBird alert
(I'm staying 4 minutes south of Standley Lake and couldn't resist!), but by
then it could have been out in the lake hunting. The roosting geese were
pretty noisey.
Positive and negative updates on this bird would be much appre
I certainly am; please let me know when and where to meet.
