Less Canadians Visiting US This Year

From Foreman's Branch Bird Observatory at Washington College

One of the last species we capture each fall is the Northern Saw-whet Owl. The smallest owl in the East, this species moves south in mid October in search of food. The numbers that move vary a lot depending on how successful the breeding season was. This fall we've captured fewer than average which means most owls probably stayed well to our north for the winter.
