[Ontbirds]Northern Hawk Owl in Stoney Creek

[ray barlow]

A great week was had, as this beautiful bird has stayed nearby here, and entertained many a birder, and photogs. 

It would appear he/she will stay in the area for a while, as we saw it capture and eat a very large vole again today.

some images in here, updated daily.

Directions

Take the QEW to Niagara / Stoney Creek area, and take Fifty Road South to the escarpment top., Turn right at the stop sign at Ridge Rd., and go less then 1km to the first street on the left, 10th concession., turn left then look for cars, telescopes, lenses, and binoculars.

If you do not see anyone, but see lots of cars, go south to the tracks, and look west towards Hamilton., as the bird has good hunting about 1/2 km down the tracks., beware of trains.

Thanks to everyone for the emails once again., overwhelming.

good luck, and good birding.
