This is a bird that I have heard singing away many times in Algonquin Park, here in Ontario. I live in Toronto, and this past Friday, my wife and I came upon an adult Saw-Whet Owl out in the bush. This was the first time as birders that we had ever seen a Saw-Whet Owl. And it only took 50 years! Fortunately, we had our camera with us and got some good pictures and video. We have posted them for anyone interested at: http://frametoframe.ca/photo-essay-northern-saw-whet-owl-sightingAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00862905632247327839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-912170156662284443.post-30813026749046338372009-02-18T12:14:00.000-07:002009-02-18T12:14:00.000-07:00It is amazing how many of these little guys are ou...It is amazing how many of these little guys are out there! The women who owns farm where I capture them had never seen a saw-whet there before I started banding, and she had lived there for 60 years! In 3 years I have captured over 504 at her farm!<BR/>The thing is they rarely start moving until it is quite dark, so they are less conspicuous and typically go unnoticed.Jared B.

I never knew they were even HERE in Saskatchewan until I posted a youtube video of one in our backyard in Regina, Sask, and was advised they breed here. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OLuYPhGorAo&feature=channel_pageAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
