Yesterday morning up in Sax-Zim Bog (Northeastern Minnesota) I found this Great Gray Owl hunting for its breakfast. While it looks like the owl was starting right at me, shortly after the 2nd video clip it dove and caught something only 10 yards in front of me (video link for email subscribers)

Better yet, this afternoon it is supposed to be sunny and 47F! The last time we had a truly sunny day was over nine days ago. Quite a few Rough-Legged and Red-Tailed Hawks have now arrived in Sax-Zim. I am looking forward to doing some bird watching along Hwy #133, and then given sunset is now so early, I may also go owling. Cheers.
