Thanks to that post... or should I say thanks to Moira for reading that post and letting me know... we saved ourselves a very long drive for nothing.
I emailed someone who lives out there and I was told the owl made a "very brief" appearence Saturday. It seems it is now hunting off road and out of sight.
For anyone who had planned to go out there to see the Great Grey, I suggest holding off untill there are more consistent sightings.  (if there will be) I have been out there twice and had great success both times. I had no problem with plans to go a third time on Sunday or even a fourth time taking  someone who couldn't make it there on their own, so trust me when I say if I'm not going to make the drive out there right now, it's not worth going.  :)

Thanks macman for the compliments, yes it's the same Owl from the story in the TS. It looks like he's flown the coop through. No confirmed sighting since the 11th.
Right now I'm using a 300mm 2.8 It's a used older model that does not have VR but it can be just as good of a  lens  and I saved about $3000.  :wink:


Irene!!! Thanks girl. Always awesome to hear from you!!!
