Hi folks,

December 3rd birding while doing some GPS:

WHITE RED-TAILED HAWK observed again in Hortonville, at the Kenny Farm
between 8:00 and 9:00 am. Initially spotted from highway 101, was
perched on the roof of the large silver barn. Captured some
Luneau-style video of it flying and perched on a telephone pole which
shows some dark brown on the nape and some faint brown on the
underwings. Mobbed quite frequently by a murder (hopefully not) of
crows.

SNOWY OWL at the Guzzle in Grand-Pre between 10 and 12. Opened the car
door to search for it, and flew off from a perch on the rocky slope of
the dyke about 5m away from me (!) . Some more Luneau-style video of
it being mobbed by several ravens, and also a harrier (!) "it ain't
easy being white"

cheers,
James Churchill
