Christmas Bird Count

The Miramichi Naturalists Club will be organizing the Miramichi Christmas Bird Count again this year.  The count will take place on Sunday, December 18.  If you have a chance to watch your bird feeders for part of this day, it would be appreciated.  If you could send me an email at the end of the day with the bird species seen, as well as the number of each species, that would be great.  If you notice any mammals around that day, please include them as well. 
In case you’re interested, two Barnacle Geese have been spotted with a flock of Canada Geese.  The Barnacle Geese are very rare for our area.  They were seen yesterday and today on the lawn or in the water on the east side of the Rodd Inn.
Please send me an email or call me if you have any questions.
Thanks so much for participating!

Owl’s Identity

Not a good shot at all but while light was descending while working on portage trail, the attached came flying down the cut trail (Cains R-Gaspereau area).

This looks like a Boreal Owl.  What do others think?    Leonel
