That does worry me a bit for survival of some birds of prey. Hoping these were oddballs and not a trend! Helene Helene Van Doninck DVM Cobequid Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre RR#1 Brookfield Nova Scotia Canada B0N1C0 hvandoninck@eastlink.ca www.cwrc.net http://cwrcblog.blogspot.com/ 1-902-893-0253 CWRC 2010 Calendars now for sale, see www.cwrc.net -----Original Message----- From: naturens-owner@chebucto.ns.ca [mailto:naturens-owner@chebucto.ns.ca]On Behalf Of Randy Lauff Sent: Saturday, November 07, 2009 7:47 AM To: NatureNS Subject: [NatureNS] Re: Owl #100 Thanks to Jim Wolford for pointing out that I didn't mention the type of owl. This email was actually supposed to go to a different address, and the recipient would have known I meant a Northern Saw-whet Owl (though the 100 owls also includes about 10 Boreals). Anyway, the southbound migration seems about as strong as last year. Other folks monitoring the migration are seeing a slow start (they're all south of me), but they haven't got their big wave yet. I've caught more Deer Mice in my house this past month (about 6) than in the last three years. I hope this means there are a lot of mice, not that my house has suddenly become attractive! If the mice numbers are truly up, then as long as the winter isn't too hard, weasels, owls, snakes, foxes should all do well next year. Randy 2009/11/6 Randy Lauff <randy.lauff@gmail.com> I banded my 100th owl last night, before the moon rose. My 100 owls are almost evenly split between nest-banded birds and migration monitoring. The birds was an AHY unknown sex, not wearing any bracelets. But it did have bloody chin feathers, and the blood wasn't mine.
