Our commute takes us over the Sudbury Aqueduct, and occasionally we see a turkey or two.
Today, however, this handsome bird was hanging out–and getting mobbed by blue jays, who clearly didn’t like her/him in the neighborhood.
Anyone know what kind of owl this is? It was rather large–easily a foot or so high.
Thanks for posting this lovely picture. I am not an expert but I think it may be a Barred Owl. Anyone know for sure?
It’s a Barred Owl. Beautiful! Andreae email me and tell me where I can look for it.
Yes, that’s a Barred Owl. We occasionally hear them calling here in Waban.
