An owl was found at Unity Pond by Dave Potter at 9:00 AM yesterday (probably the same bird). I saw it around 3:30, in the place he found it (on the trestle along the RR tracks). I watched it fly eastward possibly in response to someone walking southward along the tracks from Burnham. It appeared to be a dusky immature male but the view was distant so couldn't say for sure. Hope it stays for Christmas count!
Good birding,
tom

Hi Bob,
Got a pretty good look at a large white owl in Unity this afternoon, in open fields off Rt. 220, about 2 miles south of the junction with Rt. 9/202. Any other sightings reported?
This is very exciting for me as it is my first time seeing this owl!
