Toronto - I returned to see this rare overwintering male before it heads north. Shooting conditions were much better than on New Year's Day, with no heat shimmer and moderate wind. The bird also came closer one time during my four-hour stay.

Chris: I think you’ve outdone yourself. Congrats on a “smasher”
Brian Morin: The Boreal Owl was high on my list for this winter. The shot window was very narrow because of branches, only about a metre, so a few of us were crowded together for a short time. Three were up and three were down in the snow. My knees took a beating. :)

Montreal - I returned to see this European vagrant and had a far better experience than I did a month ago. There was no crowd (myself and a couple from Pennsylvania) and the bird's habits were well understood since a feeder had been set up with meal worms, berries and safflower seeds. Instead of seconds I had it sunning itself for a few minutes before flying off into an adjacent lot.

Chris: Simply gorgeous. Glad the weather cooperated too! I may try and take my chances - have a work trip :)
Brian Morin: This bird is looking great and has clearly settled in with the help of local birders. There are multiple eBird reports daily.
