Lovely image. The only recent report of a wild Barn Owl in Ontario was a few months back in the area of Short Hills Provincal Park, around Oille Street and Wessel Drive toward Pelham Road.

This is a lovely shot of the barn owl, Mountsberg is an awesome place. It allowed me to see some raptors I may never see in the wild like this barn owl.
