Hi Tweets!

Just a small report on our visit to Boundary Bay, at 1:30pm on Monday,
Jan. 20th. After Janet and I reached the end of 72nd street we walked
west on the dike path. [In our previous visits most of the Snowys were
east along that path.] We counted 40 Snowy Owls during our short visit.
Most were around a greenhouse area, along the ridges of the roofs or
sitting on piles of sawdust. One was up in a tree sitting quietly only 30
feet away and another sitting on a prey on the ground about the same
distance from the path. A little further down there's a nice home near
the dike which had 7 on it's roof ridge. Quite a spectacle!

Our only regret was forgetting the telephoto. at #$%*$# at Maybe next time.

Good birding,
