24 Hours of Northland Owling

Early June is the time of year one often finds owls active after sunrise. Their owlets are getting big, and require lots of food, which means hunting lasts longer. Yesterday in addition to my local Great Horned Owls (see end of post), I watched a Great Gray Owl hunt for a bit shy of two hours up in Sax-Zim Bog. Actually the parent bird was still hunting when I left, but its hunting locale was getting to a boggy area where it was difficult to walk.

  1. I’m sure one or more of your posts has info about plant ID apps and their pros and cons. I had Picture This but I was being charged $29.99 month which is way too much. I may only use it 6 times in a month. Any help you can give me I would appreciate.

    1. On the road for a week. May have some information on my home computer. Will respond in about 7 days
