Is there anyone monitoring owls in White Point. Sunday morning about 6 am or 
slightly before, I thought I heard an owl calling in the distance but then 
the morning bird sing started and that was the end of any maybe owl sounds.

Hi all:

This morning one pair of red crossbills showed up at my feeders in Dublin 
Shore.  When I left for work the male was on top of the apple tree 
vocalizing.  It sort've makes me wonder if it is not one of the pairs that 
nested nearby last year.  Sorry Ian, I forgot to take a photo, but suspect 
that the pair will stick around to nest so I will remember the next time 
they are around to get a pic, so that the subspecies can be determined.

In running the owl route for Lapland/Laconna last night the weather was 
great.  Dorothy Poole and Gary Selig helped me with such.  It was the 
quietest I've ever had it at the stops.  It did not look good for the first 
half of the route with no habitat left and only one barred a long ways off 
and I will finish tonight with this...
