The annual Ontario Nocturnal Owl Survey is about to take place and I'm sure once again the Barred Owl will be the most numerous of the 9 or 10 species that will be counted. In 2015, in the Central Ontario region, 415 Barred Owls were counted, while the next closest owl species was Northern Saw-Whet Owl at 60 individuals. It will be some time before the final numbers for this year will be available, but in the meantime, I have an excuse to once again show a few Barred Owl photos that my brother Bob and his wife, Nancy, sent me from last year. What a beautiful bird! Then again all our owl species are exceptionally eye-catching.
Please comment if you wish.
