Hi folks,

The Great Gray Owl disappeared from the Sanctuary on February 26th, and
staff all thought it had gone for good. Three days later, it re-appeared
briefly in the meadow looking quite bedraggled then disappeared again within
half an hour. Although it has been seen briefly in this past week a few
times, there has been no predictability to its presence/absence and every
time we search for it, it has been gone again. I suspect it might be still
in the area or else it is exploring around the Fraser Delta area as a
precursor to heading off to its normal species range. We haven't seen it at
all for the past few days.
