Northern Harriers, Redtails, GHO Tuesday

[skyviewer]

What started out to be very cold and unproductive ended up being a good day.  I changed my post after realizing from my one pic that the two birds at Lynde marsh were also Harriers.

Went to Second Marsh, Thicksons Woods, Lynde Marsh down the road to the end, and finally halls road

5 Redtails one was a juvenile (the juvy was sitting on a fence post along halls road.  I also saw two adults hunting around Halls in the fields)
2 Northern Harriers - (hunting together in Lynde Marsh up the road by the first platform in the field by the silo.)
2 Northern Harriers hunting (one of them, was harrassing a redtail in a tree at the bottom of Halls road west along the water)
1 Great Horned Owl

The only one i got good pics of was the great horned owl.

Hey Yogi.  We probably drove right by eachother.  There was a few other people i saw.  Someone was taking pics just down the path from the parking at the south end trail when i drove by.
I saw another owl again today.  Could not tell if it was the short eared that was posted as being seen earlier in the week.  I was walking along the path and unfortunately i did not see it in the tree a 100 feet or so away and it flew off.  He wasn't as friendly as the GHO i saw.  He just sat there and let me take pics.  He seemed pretty perturbed by all the geese flying above keeping him awake though.
