I live in Toronto, Canada, and this past Sunday, my wife, Jean, and I came upon a Barred Owl in Rouge National Park, near Markham, Ontario. This was the second time in six weeks that we have come upon, and filmed, an owl out in the wilds. The first was a Saw-Whet Owl. Prior to these two sightings, we had never seen an owl in its natural habitat. Needless to say, it has been an exciting six weeks. Our pictures and video of the Barred Owl sighting are posted on our blog at: http://frametoframe.ca/photo-essay-barred-owl-sighting-markham-ontario/<br /><br />Our pictures and video of the Saw-Whet Owl sighting are at: http://frametoframe.ca/photo-essay-northern-saw-whet-owl-sighting/<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00862905632247327839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1264193705821192168.post-18990244422736146992011-06-07T15:37:43.990-04:002011-06-07T15:37:43.990-04:00what a magnificent owl!what a magnificent owl!Crafty Green Poethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02486633917197181851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1264193705821192168.post-77358934796214430452011-06-07T00:51:19.441-04:002011-06-07T00:51:19.441-04:00Beautiful photos.

For the past ten days I've been trying to comment on yours and keep having to sign in. I know this has been a blogger problem recently, but it's your blog and two others which I cannot upload comments to. I hope this one arrives in your postbox! I love the Barred Owl. Imagine seeing an owl in broad daylight and that it stayed put for your to photograph it. Have a great day.
