My first Barred Owl photos...

Photos by BarrytheBirder

Hereabout then are some of the first photos I ever took of a Barred Owl, near to where I lived in King City, Ontario, just north of Toronto, Ontario.   It was on November 30 of 2018, and I published them shortly thereafter in this blog space.   

Barred Owls (Strix varia) are seen only by those who seek them out in their dark retreats, usually thick groves of trees in lowland forests.   They rest quietly during the day, coming out at night to feed on rodents, birds, frogs, and crayfish.   If disturbed, they will fly easily from one grove of trees to another.
