Morning Birder's

This is my first report here! I got a tip (earlier this week) from a friend
about possible GGO's along March Valley Road. This morning (8 a.m.) I
checked out the area and observed 3 individual Great Gray Owls on MVR
between Klondike and 1375 March Valley Road all within Department of
National Defense property. One of the owls, the second, was observed
closest to MVR while the two other owls were some 50m from the road
actively hunting.
