On Sat. 11/30, there were 8 owls total seen. 6 were near the intersection
of Graveyard Spit with the main spit, and another two were seen flying
past the lighthouse. I thought that they were all adults except one of the
pair that flew past the lighthouse to the tip of the spit. The 6 were all
in the same field of view. They can be seen from the top of the beach
embankment, but not from the water's edge. A marking place is a group of
very large sawn off stumps that have drifted onto the edge of the beach.
They were about 200-300 yards back toward the mainland from those stumps.
There is also a small flock of 10-20 snow buntings where the owls are.
