[nysbirds-l] Owls and birds of the Hudson highlands

A thorough hike through black rock forest yielded a great 3 saw whet owls all showing evidence of having been present for well over a week. I make this judgement based on the amount of pellets and wash under the birds. Also present was a high flying golden eagle, barred owl and red tailed hawk.

Late this afternoon, a snowy owl was located on an island in Shinnecock Bay east of the Ponquogue Bridge.  The owl was seen directly across from the end of the road that is halfway between the bridge and the fishing piers.  At sunset, a short eared owl was seen briefly over the marsh one mile
