It was found dead Oct. 7 in Dryden, Ontario. It shows that the birds were moving north. |
That is the highest number of great gray owls ever banded in a single season in the world. |
That means young birds (from the summer of 2004) were probably never born. The birds that tried to produce young probably failed. |
The information will be useful in terms of who encounters these birds in the future, where they go, maybe also how long they live. |
