The Northern Hawk Owl was again at the Stein Road location in Northwest Whatcom County, this afternoon at about three o'clock. The owl was about 100 yards in near the top of a birch. We walked further along the southern edge of the berry field (first one on your right northbound on Stein, probably a mile and a half north of Birch Bay-Lynden Road, last farm field before crossing Dakota Creek) and also saw a Peregrine, the darker local kind. Earlier on Loomis Trail under the power lines we watched a pair (at least, there were two) of Red-tailed Hawks, one of which stuck a large mammal of some kind, the size of a pack rat, by diving off a fairly high perch. It hit in out in an open pasture and flew off with its long tail wiggling like a night crawler.
