On the topic of owls, has anyone done their owl routes this  year to listen for breeding/territorial owls? Results? I have not heard the usual owls (Great-Horned, Barred) so far this season on the outskirts of Bridgewater.

He sent me a photo of the owl and I confirmed it as a Saw-whet. This is only a couple of km away from one photographed live  by Emily Munro on the night of mar 3 in a shrub near the A&W in nearby Lourdes. Could very well have been the same bird.

I told her it was probably looking for mice around her bird feeder. She wanted to know if she should leave out some hamburger in case it returns. I told her it couldn't hurt to try.  Any comments?
