Title: Snowy Owl, Oakville?
Post by: Napper on March 14, 2024, 03:02:22 PM

A Snowy was reported today along 403/QEW corridor on the side of the road possibly injured.

It eventually flew from the Highway into the tall grass near the Ford Plant in Oakvillle.

This was a few moments ago on my radio device that is on in the background. Ever heard of "Ontario Owl Foundation" neither have I.  I would have thought LEO would have called the Toronto Wildlife center at Downsview.

I've heard of "The Owl Foundation" in Vineland Station - they help injured and orphaned owls.

How ironic, the first time I ever saw a Snowy Owl many years ago was in Oakville at that same location listed in your posting.
